Text Quotes
Dedicated researchers seek better treatments and cures for diabetes, kidney disease, Alzheimer’s and every form of cancer. But these scientists face an array of disincentives. We can do better  (Michael Milken Quotes) For those of us who have lost loved ones in their prime - as I did when my father and other relatives succumbed - even one of those years would have been a precious gift  (Michael Milken Quotes) The federal investment in finding cures for cancer - $3 billion annually [as of 1999] - is less than ... zero ... point ... zero ... zero ... zero ... four ... percent of our gross domestic product, or about one-seventh of what Americans spend on beauty products.  (Michael Milken Quotes) The future of our country is not found in our boardrooms, but in our classrooms  (Michael Milken Quotes) In financing growing companies, we always looked for human value that didn’t appear on the balance sheet  (Michael Milken Quotes) In the four decades of philanthropy that have paralleled my business career, I’ve found that the same principles apply whether you’re providing access to capital to grow a business, creating a new paradigm for medical research, or pioneering innovative approaches to education: Empower the most talented people in each field and encourage them to pursue their passions  (Michael Milken Quotes) Earlier in this century, philanthropy often flowed from the wills of dead industrialists. In recent decades, it’s as likely to have come from a very alive business leader, entertainer, artist or sports star. The most effective of these patrons begin the process of giving by asking what they care about passionately  (Michael Milken Quotes) There’s no substitute for rolling up your sleeves and working with the people who can make a difference. They get the benefit of your participation and you gain a direct understanding of the real problems and potential solutions, which makes you a more informed giver  (Michael Milken Quotes) I decided to shift my energy and concentration into changing my lifestyle and diet and taking charge of my own illness  (Michael Milken Quotes) So many of my family and friends had lost their battles against cancer. What could I do that my relatives and friends had not? What could I do that would be different?  (Michael Milken Quotes) The rest of the world is growing so quickly, they’ll be looking for anything to buy  (Michael Milken Quotes)
