There are two problems in my life. The political ones are insoluble and the economic ones are incomprehensible

When the IMF and the World Bank force a country to cut wages, lay off workers, produce for export instead of their own people, and sell off public property to cronies for less than its value, that's called "economic reform

Isn't it strange? The same people who laugh at gypsy fortune tellers take economists seriously

Economists are people who work with numbers but don't have the personality to be accountants

Economy is how to spend money without enjoying it

The economy depends about as much on economists as the weather does on weather forecasters

The meek shall inherit the earth - they are too weak to refuse

Of all the plants that cover the earth and lie like a fringe of hair upon the body of our grandmother, try to obtain knowledge that you may be strengthened in life

Two things upon this changing earth can neither change nor end; the splendor of Christ's humble birth, the love of friend for friend

Who needs then sun when the rain's is full of life? Who needs the sky when the ground's open wide? It's here in your arms I want to be buried. You are my sanctuary
