A budget tells us what we can't afford, but it doesn't keep us from buying it.

A budget tells us what we can't afford, but it doesn't keep

Summary

This quote suggests that a budget serves the purpose of defining our financial limits and showing us what we cannot afford. However, it highlights that having a budget does not necessarily prevent us from making purchases that exceed our financial means. In other words, even when we are aware of our budget constraints, we may still be tempted to make impulsive or extravagant purchases despite knowing the consequences. Thus, the quote serves as a reminder of the importance of self-discipline and making thoughtful financial decisions within the limitations of one's budget.

A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be the constant companion of your walks.
