“The whole financial structure of Wall Street seems to rise or fall on the mere fact that the Federal Reserve Bank raises or lowers the amount of interest. Any business that can't survive a one percent change must be skating on thin ice. Why even the poor farmer took a raise of another ten percent just to get a loan from the bank, and nobody from the government paid any attention. But you let Wall Street have a nightmare and the whole country has to help to get them back into bed again.” CountryWholeFactsHelpingSeemsGovernmentFallInterestPoorAttentionStreetsWallAmountBedTenPercentEconomicsPaidRaisesStructureMereFinancialIceNightmareFarmersReservesLoanSkatingFederal ReserveSkating On Thin Ice Author:Will Rogers

“In your bed tonight, turn off all of the lights and make sure that there is no noise. There is something that you will hear. It is probably that branch slapping the window but you better believe that your mind is going to go to some sick individual tapping on the glass because he wants to get your attention to come to the window for when you do you will be grabbed through it and pulled outside. That happens to me all of the time.” WantMindBelieveLightHappensTurnsIndividualAttentionBedWindowSickGlassesNoiseBranchesTonightTurn OffTappingSlapping Author:Marcus Dunstan
“I love the art history ones because it's so little work for me. There's so many paintings that when I look at them, the look on the lady's face is like so clear and her body language and her posture or their physical situation is so immediately recognizable. Anyone who's been in a conversation they didn't want to have, or been getting harangued by a little kid they didn't want to pay attention to or been tired and wanted to go to bed is just like, "Yes, of course."” WantLooksLittlesArtBodyKidsWantedFacesCoursesLanguagePayAttentionSituationClearPaintingBedConversationTiredPay AttentionLittle KidPostureBody LanguageArt History Author:Mallory Ortberg
