Economy Quotes (page 7)

I talk about going to [George W. Bush's] Inauguration and cryingwhen he took the oath, 'cause I was so afraid he was going towreck the economy and muck up the drinking water'... the failure ofmy pessimistic imagination at that moment boggles my mind now. Sarah Vowell

Nowadays, of course, just about our only solvent industry is the merchandising of death, bankrolled by our grandchildren, so that the message of our principal art forms, movies and television and political speeches and newspaper columns, for the sake of the economy, simply has to be this: War is hell, all right, but the only way a boy can become a man is in a shoot-out of some kind, preferably, but by no means necessarily, on a battlefield.

In love one should exercise economy of intercourse. None of us can love for ever. Love will be stronger and will last longer if there are impediments of its gratification. If a lover is prevented from enjoying his love by absence, difficulty of access, or by the caprice or coldness of his beloved, he can find a little consolation in the thought that when his wishes are fulfilled his delight will be intense. But love being what it is, should there be no hindrances, he will pay no attention to... W. Somerset Maugham
No wonder so many sermons are devoted exclusively to "spiritual" subjects. If one is living by the tithes of history's most destructive economy, then the disembodiment of the soul becomes the chief of worldly conveniences. Wendell Berry
The global industrial economy is the engine for massive environmental degradation and massive human (and nonhuman) impoverishment. Derrick Jensen
Seth Godin quote: "Being surrounded by educated people makes democracy stronger,..."
Being surrounded by educated people makes democracy stronger, and it benefits our entire economy. Seth Godin
Anarchism, to me, means not only the denial of authority, not only a new economy, but a revision of the principles of morality. It means the development of the individual as well as the assertion of the individual. It means self-responsibility, and not leader worship. Voltairine de Cleyre
Let us have the candor to acknowledge that what we call "the economy" or "the free market" is less and less distinguishable from warfare. Wendell Berry
the planned Chinese economy, by refusing to allow federated groups to organize their work autonomously, condemns itself to become another example of the perfected form of capitalism called socialism. Raoul Vaneigem
Now, if there were an Olympics for misleading, mismanaging and misappropriating then this administration would take the gold, world-records for violations of national and international law. They want another four year term to continue to alienate our allies, spend our children's inheritance and hollow out the economy. We cannot afford another Republican administration. Dennis Kucinich
Annie Dillard quote: "This is a spendthrift economy; though nothing is lost, all is..."
This is a spendthrift economy; though nothing is lost, all is spent. Annie Dillard
