"Money sometimes makes fools of important persons,..." - Quote by Walter Winchell

“Today's gossip is tomorrow's headline.”

“Too many people expect wonders from democracy, when the most wonderful thing of all is just having it.”

“Gossip is the art of saying nothing in a way that leaves practically nothing unsaid.”

“If we lose our Money, it gives us some Concern. If we are cheated or robb'd of it, we are angry: But Money lost may be found; what we are robb'd of may be restored: The Treasure of Time once lost, can never be recovered; yet we squander it as tho' 'twere nothing worth, or we had no Use for it.”

“Buying something on sale is a very special feeling. In fact, the less I pay for something, the more it is worth to me. I have a dress that I paid so little for that I am afraid to wear it. I could spill something on it, and then how would I replace it for that amount of money?”

“It irritates the hell out of me but you can't buy love.”

“He who controls the past controls the future.”

“The universal regard for money is the one hopeful fact in our civilization. Money is the most important thing in the world. It represents health, strength, honor, generosity and beauty . . . . Not the least of its virtues is that it destroys basic people as certainly as it fortifies and dignifies noble people.”

“I'm Machiavelli's offspring, I'm the king of New York, king of the coast, one hand, I juggle them both.”
