Quote by David Ricardo

"The rise or fall of profits is the thermometer by which the rise or fall of wages is to be measured."

"Labor, like all other things which are purchased and sold, and which may be increased or diminished in quantity, has its natural and its market price."

"Rent is that portion of the produce of the earth which is paid to the landlord for the use of the original and indestructible powers of the soil."

"The principle of gravitation is not more certain than the tendency of such circumstances to augment the facilities of production."

"Fear drives civilization. Without it, there is only chaos."

"Order through chaos. That's the only real answer."

"Politics and power corrupt when they're separated from purpose."

"The system isn't broken—it was built this way. We have to rebuild it."
