Business Quote of the Day #9 - Phil Knight, Nike
That's the nature of money.
Whether you have it or not,
Like it or not,
Want it or not,
It will try to define your days.
Our task as human beings is not to let it.
-Phil Knight-
Money is a double-edged sword. It can motivate you to work hard and make a living, buy your favourites items to make you happy, or donate to those in need and send hope to them. On the other side, money can be so evil that it can induce one to use it in a wrong way, going after money at the expense of others or even the society.
Remember, we have to accomplish the former and avoid the latter.
Capital as such is not evil; it is its wrong use that is evil. Capital in some form or other will always be needed.
- Mahatma Gandhi
