An adult is a person who is willing to accept the consequences of their actions. All others are children.

The only purpose of money is to allow us the freedom to be of service to others. Any other use is a perversion.

Do not allow yourself to use money, sex, possessions or anything besides yourself for self-esteem.

Do not trust anyone in authority who will claim to act in your best interests. Ask your average Vietnamese, Iraqi or Afghan.

Do not trust anyone who places money above all else. Ever. Don't even go near them.

Contentment is better than happy.

Do not expect anyone else to have your best interests at heart.

Do not expect your children to hear anything you say after they are six.

Do not expect anyone to want to be just like you.

The use of force is a last resort. Unless one is stealing.

Never, ever trust anyone who says they come in peace. Never.

Marriage is society's way of forcing one to stay in a relationship when it is no longer in one's best interest. For those who want to stay, marriage is not necessary.
