Joseph Heller quote: "For war there is always enough. It's peace that's expensive."
For war there is always enough. It's peace that's expensive. Joseph Heller
At one time, the state of culture in Czechoslovakia was described, rather poignantly, as a 'Biafra of the spirit'. . . I simply do not believe that we have all lain down and died. I see far more than graves and tombstones around me. I see evidence of this in . . . expensive books on astronomy printed in a hundred thousand copies (they would hardly find that many readers in the USA) . . . Vaclav Havel

Garth Brooks quote: "Life is like therapy - real expensive and no guarantees."
Life is like therapy - real expensive and no guarantees. Garth Brooks
The key insight of Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations is misleadingly simple: if an exchange between two parties is voluntary, it will not take place unless both believe they will benefit from it. Most economic fallacies derive from the neglect of this simple insight, from the tendency to assume that there is a fixed pie, that one party can gain only at the expense of another. Milton Friedman
H. Allen Smith quote: "We believe in healthy, hearty laughter -- at the expense of..."
We believe in healthy, hearty laughter -- at the expense of the whole human race, if needs be. Needs be. H. Allen Smith
He had the kind of real deep tan that rich people spent ages trying to acheive with expensive holidays and bits of tinfoil, when really all you needed to obtain one is work your arse off in the open air everyday. Terry Prachett
The peril of every fine faculty is the delight of playing with it for pride. Talent is commonly developed at the expense of character, and the greater it grows, the more is the mischief. Talent is mistaken for genius, a dogma or system for truth, ambition for greatness, ingenuity for poetry, sensuality for art. Ralph Waldo Emerson
Arundhati Roy quote: "Insanity hovered close at hand, like an eager waiter at an..."
Insanity hovered close at hand, like an eager waiter at an expensive restaurant. Arundhati Roy
Abuse of the military metaphor may be inevitable in a capitalist society, a society that increasingly restricts the scope and credibility of appeals to ethical principle, in which it is thought foolish not to subject one's actions to the calculus of self-interest and profitability. War-making is one of the few activities that people are not supposed to view 'realistically'; that is, with an eye to expense and practical outcome. In all-out war, expenditure is all-out, unprudent--war being... Susan Sontag
Every time we killed a thousand Bugs at a cost of one M.I. it was a net victory for the Bugs. We were learning, expensively, just how efficient a total communism can be when used by a people actually adapted to it by evolution; the Bug commisars didn't care any more about expending soldiers than we cared about expending ammo. Perhaps we could have figured this out about the Bugs by noting the grief the Chinese Hegemony gave the Russo-Anglo-American Alliance; however the trouble with 'lessons... Robert A. Heinlein
Hannah More quote: "Forgiveness is the economy of the heart... forgiveness saves..."
Forgiveness is the economy of the heart... forgiveness saves the expense of anger, the cost of hatred, the waste of spirits. Hannah More

Esai Morales quote: "Being an actor you have a lot of expenses."
Being an actor you have a lot of expenses. Esai Morales
I just want to tell you what it's like not to have Planned Parenthood... you have to give your kids Ramen noodles at the end of the month to fill up their little bellies so they won't cry.
