We hear of the wealth of nations, of the powers of production, of the demand and supply of markets, and we forget that these words mean no more, if they mean any thing, then the happiness, and the labor, and the necessities of men.

  • -- Frances Wright 弗朗西丝·莱特

我们听说过国富论、生产能力论、市场供求论,却忘记了这些词不再有任何意义,如果它们有任何意义的话,那么人类的幸福、劳动和必需品也就不再有任何意义了。
