You know if I had nickel for every time Bush has mentioned 911, I could raise enough reward money to go after Bin Laden.
I don’t know much about history, and I wouldn’t give a nickel for all the history in the world. It means nothing to me. History is more or less bunk. It's tradition. We don't want tradition.

advance money is really a delusion, that is to say, I get no more until it is paid out in sales, but still, living from hand to mouth and day to day as I do, a nickel in the hand is more useful than the same nickel next year.

It's the person who would sell his soul for a nickel, who is loudest in proclaiming his hatred of money. . . . Let me give you a tip on men's characters: the man who damns money has obtained it dishonorably; the man who respects it has earned it. Run for your life from any man who tells you that money is evil. That sentence is the. . . bell of an approaching looter.

I'm pissed at a nickel because it isn't a dime.
Lets not focus on saving a nickel. . . lets focus on making a buck.

It's the person who would sell his soul for a nickel, who is loudest in proclaiming his hatred of money.
It's no secret that we were sticking just about every nickel we had on the chance that people would really be interested in something totally new and unique in the field of entertainment.
