"Taxing profits is tantamount to taxing success."

--

Ludwig von Mises

“There is no reason to regret that I cannot finish the church. I will grow old but others will come after me. What must always be conserved is the spirit of the work, but its life has to depend on the generations it is handed down to and with whom it lives and is incarnated”
“The actual producing, mixing, and mastering is hard work, harder than what I do.”
“I don't worry about people misinterpreting my kindness for weakness.”
“There is a lovely root to the word humiliation - from the latin word humus, meaning soil or ground. When we are humiliated, we are in effect returning to the ground of our being.”
“I'd most likely be a helicopter pilot, or I'd own a really cool surf hotel somewhere on a beach.”
“To deride the hope of progress is the ultimate fatuity, the last word in poverty of spirit and meanness of mind.”
“Delicacy is to love what grace is to beauty.”
“I don't think success is harmful, as so many people say. Rather, I believe it indispensable to talent, if for nothing else than to increase the talent.”
