Jesús Huerta de Soto
“When human beings act, they inevitably synthesise memories of the past into new expectations and mental images for the future, regarding the different stages in the action process they will follow. The future is never predetermined, but instead the actor imagines, creates and builds it step by step. Therefore, the future is always uncertain, since it has yet to be done or built, and the only part of it the actor possesses consists of specific ideas, mental images or expectations he hopes to realise through the completion of stages he imagines.”
Jesús Huerta de Soto, Money, Bank Credit, and Economic Cycles

Smedley D. Butler
“I am not such a fool as to believe that war is a thing of the past. I know people do not want war, but there is no use in saying we cannot be pushed into another war”
Smedley Butler, War Is a Racket

Wilbur Smith
“Those who clamour so loudly for less work and more pay may find that the benefit they get now will have to be paid for at a thousand percent interest some day in the future.A payment in misery and hunger and suffering. If we are to steer off the reef of national disaster, then men will have to learn to work again, and to take seriously once more the demands of a disciplined and orderly society.”
Wilbur Smith

John Steinbeck
“Misfortune is a fact of nature acceptable to women, especially when it falls on other women.”
John Steinbeck, The Winter of Our Discontent

Wilbur Smith
“It's true, you know, Mark. There is nobody so virtuous as a reformed whore. We were the great robber barons-Rhodes and Robertson, Bailey and Barnato, Duff, Charleywood and Sean Courtney. We seized the land and then ripped the gold out of the earth, we hunted where we pleased, and burned the finest timber for our campfires, every man with a rifle in his hand and shoes on his feet was a king, prepared to fight anybody, Boer, Briton or Zulu, for the right of plunder.”
Wilbur Smith
