Silver is used in the electronics industry and is consumed daily; stock piles of silver are dwindling.

Don’t gain the world and lose your soul; wisdom is better than silver or gold.

If you have faith in our leaders of commerce, don’t buy gold. If you do not have faith in them, maybe you should buy gold or silver.

All over the place, from the popular culture to the propaganda system, there is constant pressure to make people feel that they are helpless, that the only role they can have is to ratify decisions and to consume.

We are so conformist; nobody is thinking. We are all sucking up stuff; we have been trained to be consumers, and we are all consuming far too much.

Too many of us now tend to worship self indulgence and consumption.

There is massive propaganda for everyone to consume. Consumption is good for profits and consumption is good for the political establishment.

As a precious metal, silver is also money.

Commodities such as gold and silver have a world market that transcends national borders, politics, religions, and race. A person may not like someone else’s religion, but he’ll accept his gold.

There is a sufficiency in the world for man’s need but not for man’s greed.
