Charles M. Schulz
“Happiness does not create humor. There's nothing funny about being happy. Sadness creates humor. Krazy Kat getting hit on the head by a brick from Ignatz Mouse is funny. All the sad things happening to Charlie Chaplin are funny. It's funny because it's not happening to us.”
Charles M. Schulz, You Don't Look 35, Charlie Brown!

“The financial markets are not to be trusted. They expect to be given free reign to make huge profits while the sun is shining, but hasten to the shelter of the state when the skies darken.”
Peter Stalker

Bernard Stiegler
“The genuine object of debate raised by the [2008 financial] crisis ought to be how to overcome the short-termism to which we have been led by a consumerism intrinsically destructive of all genuine investment in the future, a short-termism which has systematically, and not accidentally, been translated into decomposition of investment into speculation.”
Bernard Stiegler

Kenneth E. Boulding
“Mathematics brought rigor to economics. Unfortunately it also brought mortis.”
Kenneth Boulding

Kenneth E. Boulding
“Anyone who believes that exponential growth can go on forever in a finite world is either a madman or an economist.”
Kenneth Boulding
