Commodity Prices

Famous quotes containing the words commodity and/or prices:

“If mass communications blend together harmoniously, and often unnoticeably, art, politics, religion, and philosophy with commercials, they bring these realms of culture to their common denominator—the commodity form. The music of the soul is also the music of salesmanship. Exchange value, not truth value, counts.”
—Herbert Marcuse (1898–1979)

“The earth only has so much bounty to offer and inventing ever larger and more notional prices for that bounty does not change its real value.”
