Thinking is hard work. That's why there are so few people doing it.

Economy has frequently nothing whatever to do with the amount of money being spent, but with the wisdom used in spending it.

As a young man, I was very interested in how people lived in earlier times; how they got from place to place, lighted their homes, cooked their meals and so on. So I went to the history books. Well, I could find out all about kings and presidents; but I could learn nothing of their everyday lives. So I decided that history is bunk.

I don't like to read books. They muss up my mind.

Burdening people with debt is an old deal not a new deal.
