“A bank is a place that will lend you money if you can prove that you don't need it.”
“A bank is a place where they lend you an umbrella in fair weather and ask for it back when it begins to rain.”
“No, I don't want your money. The world moves less by money than by what you owe people and what they owe you. I don't like to owe anybody anything, so I keep to myself as much on the lending side as I can.”
“I don’t understand why you don’t trust me. It’s not like you have a reason to not trust me. So, lend me some money, and let me give you the reason you were looking for to not trust me. Wouldn’t you rather be proved right than not lose money?”
“Crime is for poor people. You don't need to rob the bank if you own it.”
“In my mind, the function of the bank is to save your money. The bank should not cost you money.”
