When you owe the bank enough money, and you can't pay... you don't have a problem. The bank has a problem.

Another version: If you owe the bank a dollar, you're a debtor. If you owe the bank a million dollars, you're a partner.

“When a man owes you a hundred dollars, you have power over him. When a man owes you a million dollars, he has power over you.”
