Famous quotes containing the word economy:

    “Everyone is always in favour of general economy and particular expenditure.”
    —Anthony, Sir Eden (1897–1977)

    “War. Fighting. Men ... every man in the whole realm is in the army.... Every man in uniform ... An economy entirely geared to war ... but there is not much war ... hardly any fighting ... yet every man a soldier from birth till death ... Men ... all men for fighting ... but no war, no wars to fight ... what is it, what does it mean?””
    —Doris Lessing (b. 1919)

    “Unaware of the absurdity of it, we introduce our own petty household rules into the economy of the universe for which the life of generations, peoples, of entire planets, has no importance in relation to the general development.”
    —Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)
