We do not have a money problem in America. We have a values and priorities problem.
Language is like money without which specific relative values may well exist and be felt but cannot be reduced to a common denominator.
Capital is money capital is commodities. By virtue of it being value it has acquired the occult ability to add value to itself. It brings forth living offspring or at the least lays golden eggs.
One might think that the money value of an invention constitutes its reward to the man who loves his work. But... I continue to find my greatest pleasure and so my reward in the work that precedes what the world calls success.
As one digs deeper into the national character of the Americans one sees that they have sought the value of everything in this world only in the answer to this single question: how much money will it bring in?
The chief value of money lies in the fact that one lives in a world in which it is overestimated.
If you would know the value of money go and try to borrow some.
Time is more value than money. You can get more money but you cannot get more time.
To this day my mom's unsinkable spirit is an inspiration to me. For nearly thirty years she's worked at the Library of Congress. Everyone knows Sameha simply as 'Sami.' Along with 500 miles of shelved books her closest friendships are cataloged in that library. They are as much the value of work to my mom as is the work itself.
With my new venture Club Mom we want to empower moms to feel their value and also build their collective power to make their lives better and easier. We want to bring them together as a community to share experiences and information.
My mom Irmelin taught me the value of life. Her own life was saved by my grandmother during World War II.
For everything I do I think about a 6-year-old girl and her mom that I saw at my concert last night. I think about what those two individuals would think if I were at a club last night. I never want to be arrested and I never want to get a DUI those are my moral values.
What men value in this world is not rights but privileges.
I don't think feminism as I understand the definition implies the rejection of maternal values nurturing children caring about the men in your life. That is just nonsense to me.
I have often wondered how it is that every man loves himself more than all the rest of men but yet sets less value on his own opinions of himself than on the opinions of others.
Quite frankly Barack Obama knows what it's like to pay a mortgage and student loans. He knows what it's like to watch a beloved family member in a medical crisis and worry that treatment is out of reach. Barack Obama knows our struggles. And my friends he shares our values.
We are very puritan in America. We still hold true to these really antiquated values this idea of the sanctity of marriage.
We can practice tolerance while still holding true to cultural values that protect the institution of marriage as a union between only a man and a woman.
I support allowing gay couples to marry because of - not in spite of - my values. And many of those values are the same ones deeply held by those who do not believe in gay marriage.
Civil union is less than marriage. Marriage is a sacred and valued institution and ought to be afforded equal protection.
Who of us is mature enough for offspring before the offspring themselves arrive? The value of marriage is not that adults produce children but that children produce adults.
The value of marriage is not that adults produce children but that children produce adults.
Culture what you believe what you value how you live matters. Now as fundamental as these principles are they may become topics of democratic debates from time to time so it is today with the enduring institution of marriage. Marriage is a relationship between a man and a woman.
Marriage like money is still with us and like money progressively devalued.
