Famous quotes containing the words economic and/or theory:
“The idealists 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 (18641929)
“Freud was a hero. He descended to the Underworld and met there stark terrors. He carried with him his theory as a Medusas head which turned these terrors to stone.”
—R.D. (Ronald David)
