Famous quotes containing the words farmers and/or markets:
“I find ... virtue to be found amongst the farmers of the country alone, not about courts, where courtiers dwell.”
—Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
“A free-enterprise economy depends only on markets, and according to the most advanced mathematical macroeconomic theory, markets depend only on moods: specifically, the mood of the men in the pinstripes, also known as the Boys on the Street. When the Boys are in a good mood, the market thrives; when they get scared or sullen, it is time for each one of us to look into the retail apple business.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
