Economics spreads happiness.

I see the God complex around me all the time in my fellow economists. I see it in our business leaders. I see it in the politicians we vote for - people who, in the face of an incredibly complicated world, are nevertheless absolutely convinced that they understand the way that the world works.

A lot of international companies invest in the U.K. as a base for doing business with the rest of the European Union.

You show me a successful complex system, and I will show you a system that has evolved through trial and error.

There is much more to life than what gets measured in accounts. Even economists know that.

Pluralism matters because life is not worth living without new experiences - new people, new places, new challenges. But discipline matters too; we cannot simply treat life as a psychedelic trip through a series of novel sensations.

Love may be boundless and abundant, but time isn't. Time is finite.
