    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    “Even the poor student studies and is taught only political economy, while that economy of living which is synonymous with philosophy is not even sincerely professed in our colleges. The consequence is, that while he is reading Adam Smith, Ricardo, and Say, he runs his father in debt irretrievably.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “History suggests that capitalism is a necessary condition for political freedom. Clearly it is not a sufficient condition.”
    —Milton Friedman (b. 1912)
