Famous quotes containing the words development and/or economics:
“I do seriously believe that if we can measure among the States the benefits resulting from the preservation of the Union, the rebellious States have the larger share. It destroyed an institution that was their destruction. It opened the way for a commercial life that, if they will only embrace it and face the light, means to them a development that shall rival the best attainments of the greatest of our States.”
—Benjamin Harrison (18331901)
“Religion and art spring from the same root and are close kin. Economics and art are strangers.”
—Willa Cather (18761947)
