Interest Rate Sensitivity

Famous quotes containing the words interest, rate and/or sensitivity:

    I proclaim that might is right, justice, the interest of the stronger.
    Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)

    Writing a book I have found to be like building a house. A man forms a plan, and collects materials. He thinks he has enough to raise a large and stately edifice; but after he has arranged, compacted and polished, his work turns out to be a very small performance. The authour however like the builder, knows how much labour his work has cost him; and therefore estimates it at a higher rate than other people think it deserves,
    James Boswell (1740–1795)

    The sensitivity of men to small matters, and their indifference to great ones, indicates a strange inversion.
    Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
