Economic Social

Famous quotes containing the words economic and/or social:

    “The idealist’s programme of political or economic reform may be impracticable, absurd, demonstrably ridiculous; but it can never be successfully opposed merely by pointing out that this is the case. A negative opposition cannot be wholly effectual: there must be a competing idealism; something must be offered that is not only less objectionable but more desirable.”
    —Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)

    “One cannot be too extreme in dealing with social ills; the extreme thing is generally the true thing.”
    —Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
