First rule of Economics 101: our desires are insatiable. Second rule: we can stomach only three Big Macs at a time.
Douglas Horton

First, I think the science of monetary economics has clearly gotten better.
Martin Feldstein

For in the theoretical field bourgeois economics no longer engages in blithe and joyous fights.
Rudolf Hilferding

From 1931 to 1937, I was a Fellow and Lecturer in Economics at Hertford College, Oxford.
James Meade

From where I am sitting much of the country now sees the President the way I have seen him since the campaign. He is an ambitious leftist, with little understanding of economics, and with far-reaching goals to create significant and irreversible growth of government and redistribution of wealth through dramatic changes in tax, regulatory, and spending policies.
Charles W. Calomiris

Geography has made us neighbors. History has made us friends. Economics has made us partners, and necessity has made us allies. Those whom God has so joined together, let no man put asunder.
John F. Kennedy

History shows that where ethics and economics come in conflict, victory is always with economics. Vested interests have never been known to have willingly divested themselves unless there was sufficient force to compel them.
B. R. Ambedkar

History, sociology, economics, psychology et al. confirmed Joyce's view of Everyman as victim.
Robert Anton Wilson

Lech Walesa

Gerard Debreu

I had four or five years in school training as a soprano. I fell into pop singing because of economics. I got out of high school and had to go work, and they weren't hiring opera singers.
Jo Stafford

I just knew that economics had never been my big motivation.
Leigh Steinberg

I love the gallery, the arena of representation. It's a commercial world, and morality is based generally around economics, and that's taking place in the art gallery.
Jeff Koons

I studied economics and made it my career for two reasons. The subject was and is intellectually fascinating and challenging, particularly to someone with taste and talent for theoretical reasoning and quantitative analysis.
James Tobin

I think it is just stupid economics for a government to approach economic management from a strand of thinking regarding unions as enemies.
Bob Hawke

I think that the use of copyright is going to change dramatically. Part of it is economics. There is just going to be so much content out there - there's a scarcity of attention. Information consumes attention, and there's too much information.
Esther Dyson

I think we're miserable partly because we have only one god, and that's economics.
James Hillman
