Famous quotes containing the word millionaire:
“Poverty demoralizes. A man in debt is so far a slave; and Wall-street thinks it easy for a millionaire to be a man of his word, a man of honor, but, that, in failing circumstances, no man can be relied on to keep his integrity.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
