"The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists."

"I myself have always been rather in favour of biblical criticism and what is called the 'Higher Criticism'."

"One cannot prove that the capitalist system is either just or efficient, merely by pointing to its achievements."

"Power without control is just destruction."

"Power is not about control, it's about influence"

"The world doesn't need me to be the hero. It just needs me to be dangerous."

"The claws come out when I need them to."
