Default Do You Have A Favorite Business Quote?

ONE OF MY FAVORITE QUOTES IS:

"Control everything, own nothing."

And my favorite is:
"More Answers Will Be Found Through Movement Than Will Ever Be Found Through Meditation". It is by Gary Halbert.

I can understand the "control everything" part of this quote. But why "own nothing".

Do you not think that ownership is a good thing, e.g. your own business, car, house etc?

Funny. The quote is from Nelson Rockefeller, who was filthy rich.

I just read a quote today along the lines of "it is better to fail at something you love than to be successful at something you hate"

I particularly like that one and it struck a chord with me. It reminds me of other quotes such as "our greatest regrets are the things we don't do". Not trying is a lot worse than failing.
