Paul Hawken The folly of mistaking a paradox for a discovery, a metaphor for a proof, a torrent of verbiage for a spring of capital truths, and oneself for an oracle, is inborn in us. Paul Valery The globalization of the capital market is actually part of economic globalization. This will create a change in the entire world economy, not just restricted to some fields in some countries. Richard Grasso The great dialectic in our time is not, as anciently and by some still supposed, between capital and labor; it is between economic enterprise and the state. John Kenneth Galbraith The great hinderance to the development of this continent has lain in the lack of capital. William Graham Sumner The highest use of capital is not to make more money, but to make money do more for the betterment of life. Henry Ford The land is not in the least bit fertile and yet the cattle herds grow larger and larger. A cow represents capital investment here. Richard Leakey The life of a man who deliberately runs through his fortune often becomes a business speculation; his friends, his pleasures, patrons, and acquaintances are his capital. Honore De Balzac The long and distressing controversy over capital punishment is very unfair to anyone meditating murder. Geoffrey Fisher The main consideration with those who, possessing some capital, propose to emigrate as the means of improving their condition, is, the society likely to be found in the land fixed on for their future residence. Charles Sturt The mass of the people commence life with no other capital than the union of head, hearts and hands. To the benefit of this best of capital the wife has no right. Ernestine Rose The National League was born the following year, as an attempt to exert the control of capital over labor. John Thorn The natural capital is not income, but we spend our natural capital as if it were revenue, as if it were going to come back next year without any problems, whereas these renewals in nature can take hundreds of years. Susan George The peculiar fascination which the South held over my imagination and my limited capital decided me in favor of Atlanta University; so about the last of September I bade farewell to the friends and scenes of my boyhood and boarded a train for the South. James Weldon Johnson The present assault upon capital is but the beginning. It will be but a stepping-stone to others, larger and more sweeping, till our political contests will become a war of the poor against the rich. Stephen J. Field The production of wealth is the result of agreement between labor and capital, between employer and employed. Its distribution, therefore, will follow the law of its creation, or great injustice will be done. Leland Stanford The proportions, too, in which the capital that is to support labour, and the capital that is invested in tools, machinery and buildings, may be variously combined. David Ricardo The publication of the third volume of Capital has made hardly any impression upon bourgeois economic science. Rudolf Hilferding The risk of racial prejudice infecting a capital sentencing proceeding is especially serious in light of the complete finality of the death sentence. Byron White The secondary attack was made against The Hague. Its aim was to get a hold upon the Dutch capital, and in particular to capture the Government offices and the Service headquarters.
