Quotable Quotes: Wisdom


With each passing data point, it is increasingly clear that the Bernanke Fed is faced with hard choices re the US economy – rising global inflationary pressures AND a potential domestic recession. Did somebody say stagflation?

Perhaps a few words on wisdom would help.


“Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools because they have to say something.”
Plato

“The well bred contradict other people. The wise contradict themselves.”
Oscar Wilde

“The invariable mark of wisdom is to see the miraculous in the common.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Too bad that all the people who really know how to run the country are busy driving taxi cabs and cutting hair.”
George Burns

Have a good weekend.
