“One of the great arts in living is to learn the art of accurately appraising values. Everything that we think, that we earn, that we have given to us, that in any way touches our consciousness, has its own value. These values are apt to change with the mood, with time, or because of circumstances. We cannot safely tie to any material value. The values of all material possessions change continually, sometimes over night. Nothing of this nature has any permanent set value. The real values are those that stay by you, give you happiness and enrich you. They are the human values.” ThinkingWayGivingHumansArtRealSometimesNightValuesGivenConsciousnessMaterialsCircumstancesPossessionMoodPermanentTiesGreat ArtHuman ValuesReal ValueMaterial Possessions Author:George Matthew Adams
“There is a growing sentiment in America that regular saving should be ignored-that the government will take care of people and give them security when they get beyond a certain age or become old and unable to work, but it must be borne in mind that the people who earn and do save, take care of the government! Were it not for the thrifty and the willing workers, the government would be in a bad way.” PeopleWayGivingShouldMindGovernmentWould BeCareAgeAmericaCertainWealthGrowingSecurityWillingWorkersTake CareSavingSentimentsIgnoredThrifty Author:George Matthew Adams
“Nearly all our ills are the result of neglect in some way or other. And this truth may be said to apply to the ills of nations as well. Negligence is at the bottom of all decay. And decay always starts by showing little signs-or warnings. Then is the time to show interest and to be alert. There is nothing quite so easy as to neglect, and nothing quite so difficult as to repair that negligence. Negligence always carries a high price. It costs nothing to avoid it!” WayWellsMayLittlesSaidShowsNationsEasyDifficultInterestResultsCostBottomCarrieNeglectWarningDecayNegligenceHigh Prices Author:George Matthew Adams
