There is no intrinsic worth in money but what is alterable with the times, and whether a guinea goes for twenty pounds or for a shilling, it is the labor of the poor and not the high and low value that is set on gold or silver, which all the comforts of life must arise from. Bernard Mandeville
The power to distinguish between person and performance and to communicate intrinsic worth flows naturally out of our own sense of intrinsic worth. Stephen Covey
To have that sense of one's intrinsic worth which constitutes self-respect is potentially to have everything. Joan Didion
Perform anonymous service. Whenever we do good for others anonymously, our sense of intrinsic worth and self-respect increases. ... Selfless service has always been one of the most powerful methods of influence. Stephen Covey
