Miss Climpson," said Lord Peter, "is a manifestation of the wasteful way in which this country is run. Look at electricity, Look at water-power. Look at the tides. Look at the sun. Millions of power units being given off into space every minute. Thousands of old maids, simply bursting with useful energy, forced by our stupid social system into hydros and hotels and communities and hostels and posts as companions, where their magnificent gossip-powers and units of inquisitiveness are allowed to dissipate themselves or even become harmful to the community, while the ratepayers' money is spent on getting work for which these women are providentially fitted, inefficiently carried out by ill-equipped policemen like you. ~ Dorothy L. Sayers
Economics Philosophy quotes by Dorothy L. Sayers
Of valid economics pre-dating the Power Age (steam and electricity), there remains not a vestige. Of valid economics pre-dating the intensive and extensive use of electricity there will soon exist only rags and tatters. We still have to thank Adam Smith for insisting 'Consumption is the sole end and purpose of production;' but the old form of the law of demand and supply is outmoded, since supply has become practically inexhaustible. ~ Harriet Boyd Hawes
Economics Philosophy quotes by Harriet Boyd Hawes
When people believe that the local government and economy serve their needs. There is little desire to protest. ~ Auliq Ice
Economics Philosophy quotes by Auliq Ice
The problem is not capitalism, the real problem is human greed. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Economics Philosophy quotes by Abhijit Naskar
If morality represents how people would like the world to work, then economics shows how it actually does work. ~ Steven D. Levitt
Economics Philosophy quotes by Steven D. Levitt
The Socialist system requires that each individual act out of selfless, altruistic motives. It sounds nice, but the only way that could happen is if Man were innately centered on others. ~ Mark David Henderson
Economics Philosophy quotes by Mark David Henderson
America lives in the heart of every man everywhere who wishes to find a region where he will be free to work out his destiny as he chooses. ~ Woodrow Wilson
Economics Philosophy quotes by Woodrow Wilson
The laws you see today are a direct consequence of economic illiteracy in the general population. If every voter learned economics tonight, the laws would change tomorrow. ~ Ben Mathew
Economics Philosophy quotes by Ben Mathew
The real cost of something is its value in alternative uses. This truth always presents itself in prices. There is no benefit that may be gained without cost to the same individual who gained the benefit. There is no benefit that may be presented without cost to the same individual who present the benefit. ~ Hendrith Vanlon Smith Jr
Economics Philosophy quotes by Hendrith Vanlon Smith  Jr
Perhaps he has confused making money with freedom. ~ John Charles Chasteen
Economics Philosophy quotes by John Charles Chasteen
Nothing is interesting other than deleting your name from the book of poverty and misery. ~ Auliq Ice
Economics Philosophy quotes by Auliq Ice
All idealization makes life poorer. To beautify it is to take away its character of complexity - it is to destroy it. Leave that to the moralists, my boy. History is made by men, but they do not make it in their heads. The ideas that are born in their consciousness play an insignificant part in the march of events. History is dominated and determined by the tool and the production - by the force of economic conditions. Capitalism has made socialism, and the laws made by the capitalist for the protection of property are responsible for anarchism. No one can tell what form the social organisation may take in the future. Then why indulge in prophetic phantasies? At best they can only interpret the mind of the prophet, and can have no objective value. Leave that pastime to the moralists, my boy. ~ Joseph Conrad
Economics Philosophy quotes by Joseph Conrad
Corruption ultimately guilts the corrupt, and it hardens the innocent who suffer as a result of it. It isn't the young who corrupt the old, rather it's the inverse.
The aim of the old should be to ensure that the young grow up incorruptible. ~ Justin K. McFarlane Beau
Economics Philosophy quotes by Justin K. McFarlane Beau
We all know that 97% of the money in the world doesn't exist and that's thanks to Fractional Reserve Banking, or should I say fictional reserve banking." He grinned at his own joke, his smile partly hidden by his hair, "Money is no longer attached to the Gold Standard, therefore, it isn't based on anything. So when it says, 'I promise to pay the bearer on demand ten pounds,' I have to ask, ten pounds of what?" Silence. "The world is owned by the rich shareholder, the rich superstar, the rich industrialist, the rich aristocracy." He was now marching around the stage, "It doesn't matter who or what they are, if they're rich then they own a part of the world, but they only own it because they've got lots of money. Which means they own part of the 97% of the world's fictional money, the pretend money that only exists on a computer." He stopped abruptly and stared out at the audience, "Which means that if they cashed in their fictional nonexistent money they'd get something like this ten pound note offering to pay the bearer the sum of ten pounds of nothing." He held the note aloft, "Which means the rich have managed to buy the entire world with paper nothing that has a value of nothing and we've let them do it. ~ Arun D. Ellis
Economics Philosophy quotes by Arun D. Ellis
Usually when people talk about the trickle-down theory, it has to do with economics. The richer people at the top of a society become, supposedly, the more wealth there is to trickle down to the people below. It never really works out that way, of course, because if there are 2 things people at the top can't stand, they have to be leakage and overflow. ~ Kurt Vonnegut
Economics Philosophy quotes by Kurt Vonnegut
I took the obligatory economics classes in school, but I've long been a fan of the Milton Friedman philosophy and its libertarian bent: One must be free to do what one wants to do, as long as you don't harm another. This is the seminal treatise on free-market economics. ~ Charlie Trotter
Economics Philosophy quotes by Charlie Trotter
Moments are the elements of profit ~ Karl Marx
Economics Philosophy quotes by Karl Marx
... what I'm saying is that if we and all the other species on earth are the only life forms in the universe and if there are no gods and let's face it apart from a few tired scrolls written 300 years after the death of Jesus and his disciples there is no actual proof of a God or gods then we, the humans, who are meant to be at the height of the evolutionary tree, are in fact at the bottom because no other species on this planet is enslaved to the economy. Every other species is born free and lives free. We humans are born into economic slavery and life crippling debt. ~ Arun D. Ellis
Economics Philosophy quotes by Arun D. Ellis
Don't you know there's another bubble as well? An expectations bubble. Bigger houses, private planes, yachts ... stupid salaries and bonuses. People come to desire these things and expect them. But the expectations bubble will burst as well, as all bubbles do. ~ Edward Rutherfurd
Economics Philosophy quotes by Edward Rutherfurd
The corporate system is interconnected and now share a common invested interest, the ability to control through business, the people. It is an inevitable path the parameters set will take the beast down following the easiest way to collective profits, to control the ones that provide them. It is also logical to protect your own, from ones that are shedding light through Art on the grey water they may have stepped into to reach their fullest profit potentials. It is the logical solution to what would be, just business. So the Matrix story albeit written to lift for all the ceiling of what is possible, has inevitably shined a light on the entire path that was chosen and the pre-chosen road ahead that collective corporations were on creating a separate state of politically connected elite and those seeking award through serving them. A natural progression of what was set in place from the beginning. The flaw was in the design of the collective corporate system, globally intertwined now, and immersed in politics, protecting its own, making the question real this time, how to balance the equation. ~ Tom Althouse
Economics Philosophy quotes by Tom Althouse
Propounding peace and love without practical or institutional engagement is delusion, not virtue. ~ Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
Economics Philosophy quotes by Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
We are a society of notoriously unhappy people: lonely, anxious, depressed, destructive, dependent - people who are glad when we have killed the time we are trying so hard to save. ~ Erich Fromm
Economics Philosophy quotes by Erich Fromm
Everything we learn - economics, philosophy, biology, mathematics - has to be understood in light of the overarching reality of the character of God. That is why, in the Middle Ages, theology was called "the queen of the sciences" and philosophy "her handmaiden." Today the queen has been deposed from her throne and, in many cases, driven into exile, and a supplanter now reigns. We have replaced theology with religion. ~ R.C. Sproul
Economics Philosophy quotes by R.C. Sproul
The value of money has been settled by general consent to express our wants and our property, as letters were invented to express our ideas; and both these institutions, by giving a more active energy to the powers and passions of human nature, have contributed to multiply the objects they were designed to represent. ~ Edward Gibbon
Economics Philosophy quotes by Edward Gibbon
Capitalism tries for a delicate balance: It attempts to work things out so that everyone gets just enough stuff to keep them from getting violent and trying to take other people's stuff. ~ George Carlin
Economics Philosophy quotes by George Carlin
Decided to put aside ethnic differences in the cause of making more money. ~ Terry Pratchett
Economics Philosophy quotes by Terry Pratchett
African leaders should not turn the continent into a giant collector of donations and loans from wealthy nations - they must find other plausible means to help established their economic security so as to minimize poverty. This incoherent blunder on the mainland must be scrutinized. ~ Duop Chak Wuol
Economics Philosophy quotes by Duop Chak Wuol
Programmers have a saying: garbage in, garbage out. ~ Paul Krugman
Economics Philosophy quotes by Paul Krugman
These poor people have learned to endure day to day economic agony. It's routine in daily life for them. They are so accustomed to facing economic pain that poverty doesn't hurt them anymore. Extreme negativity in their life drove learning endurance and their accomplishment to endure extreme conditions is 'positivity' they mastered ~ Sadashivan Nair
Economics Philosophy quotes by Sadashivan Nair
If the ordinary wage-earner worked four hours a day, there would be enough for everybody and no unemployment
assuming a certain very moderate amount of sensible organization. This idea shocks the well-to-do, because they are convinced that the poor would not know how to use so much leisure. In America men often work long hours even when they are well off; such men, naturally, are indignant at the idea of leisure for wage-earners, except as the grim punishment of unemployment; in fact, they dislike leisure even for their sons. ~ Bertrand Russell
Economics Philosophy quotes by Bertrand Russell
It is not the role of government or any central planner to formulate the final distributions of wealth and income. ~ Hendrith Vanlon Smith Jr
Economics Philosophy quotes by Hendrith Vanlon Smith  Jr
He was thinking that the cities, perhaps, needed to look into the future even more than the country did. They should look ahead for forty, eighty, one hundred and sixty years, to a strong and healthy plain of population - or to an overworked, weakened, underfed, and infertile desert. ~ Jim Thompson
Economics Philosophy quotes by Jim Thompson
Arguing that the only problem with a free market is lack of competition, is like arguing that that the only problem with prostitution is that there aren't enough pimps. ~ Quentin R. Bufogle
Economics Philosophy quotes by Quentin R. Bufogle
Leibniz's machine was designed to automate the dreary task of solving moral problems ~ Martin Cohen
Economics Philosophy quotes by Martin Cohen
Amor fati: this is the very core of my being - And as to my prolonged illness, do I not owe much more to it than I owe to my health? To it I owe a higher kind of health, a sort of health which grows stronger under everything that does not actually kill it! - To it, I owe even my philosophy. ... Only great suffering is the ultimate emancipator of spirit, for it teaches one that vast suspiciousness which makes an X out of every U, a genuine and proper X, i.e., the antepenultimate letter. Only great suffering; that great suffering, under which we seem to be over a fire of greenwood, the suffering that takes its time - forces us philosophers to descend into our nethermost depths, and to let go of all trustfulness, all good-nature, all whittling-down, all mildness, all mediocrity, - on which things we had formerly staked our humanity. ~ Friedrich Nietzsche
Economics Philosophy quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
He seems the incarnation of everything soft and silky and velvety, without a sharp edge in his composition, a dreamer whose philosophy is sleep and let sleep. ~ Hector Hugh Munro
Economics Philosophy quotes by Hector Hugh Munro
The future of life on earth depends on our ability to take action. Many individuals are doing what they can, but real success can only come if there's a change in our societies and our economics and in our politics. I've been lucky in my lifetime to see some of the greatest spectacles that the natural world has to offer. Surely we have a responsibility to leave for future generations a planet that is healthy, inhabitable by all species ~ David Attenborough
Economics Philosophy quotes by David Attenborough
We become happier by advancing our understanding of life and by finding its endless beauty. ~ Debasish Mridha
Economics Philosophy quotes by Debasish Mridha
To forgive is to be free from past resentment to welcome the dawn of peace. ~ Debasish Mridha
Economics Philosophy quotes by Debasish Mridha
Anarchy has the flexibility to overcome many of the traditional problems of activism by focusing on revolution not as another cause but as a philosophy of living. This philosophy is as concrete as a brick being thrown through a window or flowers growing in the garden. By making our daily lives revolutionary, we destroy the artificial separation between activism and everyday life. Why settle for comrades and fellow activists when we can have friends and lovers? ~ Curious George Brigade
Economics Philosophy quotes by Curious George Brigade
It is the tyranny of hidden prejudices that makes us deaf to what speaks to us in tradition. ~ Hans-Georg Gadamer
Economics Philosophy quotes by Hans-Georg Gadamer
Today the West is awakening to its wants; and the "true self of man and spirit" is the watchword of the advanced school of Western theologians. The student of Sanskrit philosophy knows where the wind is blowing from, but it matters not whence the power comes so longs as it brings new life. ~ Swami Vivekananda
Economics Philosophy quotes by Swami Vivekananda
In a way the philosopher and the barber are of the same guild; the barber cuts hair and the philosopher splits hairs. ~ Jose Ortega Y Gasset
Economics Philosophy quotes by Jose Ortega Y Gasset
If you can't trust others, nobody will be able to trust you. ~ Debasish Mridha
Economics Philosophy quotes by Debasish Mridha
I am curious. I like to know the beauty of truth. ~ Debasish Mridha
Economics Philosophy quotes by Debasish Mridha
For the Javanese...the purpose of knowledge (kaweruh) is love, not ambition or cleverness. Knowledge comes from caring enough to suffer and learn. ~ Therese Walsh
Economics Philosophy quotes by Therese Walsh
Fate deals you a hand, and you play the hand you are dealt. You do not whine, you do not complain. That, he used to believe, was his philosophy. Why then can he not resist these plunges into darkness? ~ J.M. Coetzee
Economics Philosophy quotes by J.M. Coetzee
Women buy underwear for the men they love. It's economics. Data supports this claim."
"Are you telling me you love me, Stella?"
She hugged Karate Bear tight and nodded, suddenly overcome by shyness.
"You're not going to give me the words?" he asked.
"I've never said them to anyone but my parents."
"You think I run around telling women I love them?"
He pulled her close and pressed their foreheads together.
"I'm going to get the words out of you. Tonight. ~ Helen Hoang
Economics Philosophy quotes by Helen Hoang
See how it's a philosophy that's been handed to you by a bunch of men who were afraid. So instead, they overcompensate with hatred and violence and repression. ~ Frederick Lenz
Economics Philosophy quotes by Frederick Lenz
Flowers bloom when you are happy! ~ Avijeet Das
Economics Philosophy quotes by Avijeet Das
Knowledge is beautiful but wisdom is magnificent. ~ Debasish Mridha
Economics Philosophy quotes by Debasish Mridha
First of all, just because the Tea Party people appear to be generally uneducated, ignorant about the political process, ignorant about economics, confused about their own platform from the beginning, and indelicate when it comes to the craft of diplomacy, doesn't mean they're wrong. ~ Steven Van Zandt
Economics Philosophy quotes by Steven Van Zandt
You are happy when you can enjoy the little things around you. ~ Debasish Mridha
Economics Philosophy quotes by Debasish Mridha
There is nothing more real and more important in life than the love that we give away and the love that we receive. ~ Debasish Mridha
Economics Philosophy quotes by Debasish Mridha
Genuine and lasting friendship is possible, but it is not easy to achieve. If all of us could establish a long lasting friendship, many mature people would still have old friends from their school days. ~ Eraldo Banovac
Economics Philosophy quotes by Eraldo Banovac
Equality is what happens when the people who decide how to cut the cake (senators, for example) can't rig the division to favor themselves. ~ Kathleen Dean Moore
Economics Philosophy quotes by Kathleen Dean Moore
The universe is vast because, it has accepted everything. Every entity is supplement to the other. ~ Rajasaraswathii
Economics Philosophy quotes by Rajasaraswathii
It's better to live a simple life without success than a complex life with full of stress. ~ Debasish Mridha
Economics Philosophy quotes by Debasish Mridha
It is a positive starting point for philosophy when Aristotle says that philosophy begins with wonder, not as in our day with doubt. Moreover the world will learn that the thing is not to begin with the negative, and the reason why it has succeeded up to the present is that it has never really given itself over to the negative, and so has never seriously done what it said. Its doubt is mere child's play. ~ Søren Kierkegaard
Economics Philosophy quotes by Søren Kierkegaard
Drink love endlessly and get drunk. ~ Debasish Mridha
Economics Philosophy quotes by Debasish Mridha
We in the West regard the universe as a creation of God; like an invention or a product. After he created the universe, God set himself to oversee it and manage it. We see God as our boss. He created the universe, he is present in it, he manages every part of it, but he is still separate from it. It's like he installed video cameras all over the universe, so he can see everything that happens, and he can cause this or that to happen, but he is not a part of what happens. The Eastern view is very different. To the Hindu, for example, God didn't create the universe, but God became the universe. Then he forgot that he became the universe. Why would God do this? Basically, for entertainment. You create a universe, and that in itself is very exciting. But then what? Should you sit back and watch this universe of yours having all the fun? No, you should have all the fun yourself. To accomplish this, God transformed into the whole universe. God is the Universe, and everything in it. But the universe doesn't know that because that would ruin the suspense. The universe is God's great drama, and God is the stage, the actors, and the audience all at once. The title of this epic drama is "The Great Unknown Outcome." Throw in potent elements like passion, love, hate, good, evil, free will; and who knows what will happen? No one knows, and that is what keeps the universe interesting. But everyone will have a good time. And there is never really any danger, because everyone is really God, a ~ Warren Sharpe
Economics Philosophy quotes by Warren Sharpe
If you want to win, you must win over your mind. ~ Debasish Mridha
Economics Philosophy quotes by Debasish Mridha
Trying to straighten the question mark! ~ Raheel Farooq
Economics Philosophy quotes by Raheel Farooq
When we realize the truth that every creation is an individualized portion of the Creator and we are always one with It then we are ready to live in harmony. ~ Thomas Vazhakunnathu
Economics Philosophy quotes by Thomas Vazhakunnathu
Live for a reason
Live with passion. ~ Debasish Mridha
Economics Philosophy quotes by Debasish Mridha
For a writer to put his own intellectual musings, which he might sell for a low price as essays, into the mouths of artificially constructed characters which are more remunerative when issued as people in a novel is good economics, perhaps, but does not make literature. ~ Ernest Hemingway,
Economics Philosophy quotes by Ernest Hemingway,
Life is transient and death is unfathomable, but questions nonetheless abound. What is the driving purpose behind the prosodic life of an ordinary person such as me? What emotional rhythms, pitches, pauses, stresses, and intonations drive the meter of person's life? When the church bells toll my parting day, what tone will it strike in the hearts of other people, if any? Is there a person whoever traversed this crusty rock that we call planet Earth who did not wish for other people to remember them after their death? I confess sharing the vain longing of all men, however humble, to be remembered, not for the crimes that I committed but for fully expressing the poetic gift of life. When I ask what other people will think when I die, I must also ask why I lived, what did I live for, and what joy did I bring other people, if any. What acts, thoughts, and deeds make people beloved? What resounding chime resonates with all loving people? What magical filament binds us? What serves as the ethereal umbilical cord that causes all conscience stricken humans to crave the same universal sense of being? ~ Kilroy J. Oldster
Economics Philosophy quotes by Kilroy J. Oldster
What I love about Popsicle and the moments I can be with Camden is that their whole philosophy is family and these moments that it can create to just sit with my son, read a comic book or go outside on a hot day, take a swim and have a Popsicle treat with him. ~ Vanessa Lachey
Economics Philosophy quotes by Vanessa Lachey
I never can imagine that a woman can do anything wrong, if they do then man made her to do it. ~ Debasish Mridha
Economics Philosophy quotes by Debasish Mridha
The more you struggle to live, the less you live. Give up the notion that you must be sure of what you are doing. Instead, surrender to what is real within you, for that alone is sure ... you are above everything distressing. ~ Baruch Spinoza
Economics Philosophy quotes by Baruch Spinoza
To change a political system, the majority of the thinking citizens must unite, speak with one voice and stand firm like one leg. ~ Ahmed Padia Binkatabana
Economics Philosophy quotes by Ahmed Padia Binkatabana
Myth is the practical metabolism of our soulish life, the logic of our obsessions and oversights for which we have no language or code. Myth is the "morality" that the ineffable puts upon us, our unaccountable imperatives, our inexplicably selective clarity and obscurity, the mortal one-sidedness of our talents and wits, the passion and apathy that make such a transient passage through our hapless minds; that weave a pattern of fatality others will see before we do. Myth is distinctively human or sublime higher-order instinct, the "reason" in culture that reason knows not of. ~ Kenny Smith
Economics Philosophy quotes by Kenny Smith
You have truly gained the mastery of the very stronghold of philosophy, Mother. For without doubt only for lack of words you did not elaborate on this subject as did Tullius [Cicero], whose words will follow. For in the Hortensius, the book he wrote on the praise and defense of philosophy, he said: 'But see, surely not the philosophers but all given to argument say that those who live just as they wish are happy.' This is definitely false; for to want what is not appropriate is the worst of all miseries. It is not so miserable not to get what you want as to want to get what you ought not. Wickedness of will brings to everyone greater evil than good fortune brings good. ~ Augustine Of Hippo
Economics Philosophy quotes by Augustine Of Hippo
Our knowledge is so limited that often we are not much better than an ape. ~ Debasish Mridha
Economics Philosophy quotes by Debasish Mridha
Nothing could be more reckless than to base one's moral philosophy on the latest pronouncements of science. ~ Edward Abbey
Economics Philosophy quotes by Edward Abbey
Be simple enough to feel the true joy of life. ~ Debasish Mridha
Economics Philosophy quotes by Debasish Mridha
The world doesn't belong to me.
I belong to the world. ~ Anthony T. Hincks
Economics Philosophy quotes by Anthony T. Hincks
One of the biggest challenge in life is to see things for what they are instead of what you want them to be. ~ Saahil Prem
Economics Philosophy quotes by Saahil Prem
Free markets and capitalism are predicated upon the definition of greed as altruistic in economics".

~R. Alan Woods [2012] ~ R. Alan Woods
