Our present predicament comes from the fact that running the economy on blood is no longer fashionable. We can't end this depression with another war.

Everyone should own a piece of the wealth-producing capital of this country, but not everyone can be a manager. Or should be.

Labor is the source of subsistence, capital is the source of affluence. My idea is to make everyone a capitalist, and therefore, financially secure.

The uneasy ghost of Marx must suffer the torments of the damned at the truth glaring from the pages of history that one does not abolish property by transferring it to the state.

Hard-core structural poverty has a counterpart at the apex: hard-core structural affluence.

The point is to make the pie grow faster and distribute the new growth more equitably.

There is no future for those who cannot or will not think.

Most of us owe instead of own. And the less the economy needs our labor, the less able we are to "save" our way to capital ownership.

Technology has no function except to save labor. Yet how often do we hear that the purpose of new capital formation is to create jobs?

We have an economic policy that is just about 10,000 years out of date.

The way the system now works, credit is extended to those who don't need it and denied to those who are in desperate need of it.

I'm always learning something. Learning never ends.

We choose to remain angry. Someone else may have initiated the anger but we choose whether we remain in this state or not.

When you want to make it clear to the rest of the world that you are not an imperialist, the best countries to have with you are Britain and Spain.

If I'm going to spend the whole night waiting for you guys to stop flirting and shoot each other, I want to at least be entertained.

The easier your hair is to manage the happier you'll be with it and the prettier you'll feel.

The main point for me is moral; animals are sentient beings. I know for some this is a hard argument to accept, but we're not built to eat a lot of meat.

I sort of look at some peers of mine and I think, 'No, you've got it all wrong!' I just want to tell them all to have babies and be happy and not get sucked into that Hollywood thing.

You have to reinvent to stay fresh, to stay in the game

Dark Horse was my second time working with Todd Solondz. I love him truly, very much. And I don't think he'd ever worked with an actor a second time. It was groundbreaking.

George Washington had a tough second term.
