Common Market

Famous quotes containing the words common and/or market:

    “There is all the poetry in the world in a name. It is a poem which the mass of men hear and read. What is poetry in the common sense, but a hearing of such jingling names? I want nothing better than a good word. The name of a thing may easily be more than the thing itself to me.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The market came with the dawn of civilization and it is not an invention of capitalism.... If it leads to improving the well-being of the people there is no contradiction with socialism.”
    —Mikhail Gorbachev (b. 1931)
