“My readers often say to me, 'If we lived next door to each other, we'd be best friends.' That is precisely what I wanted to say to smart, funny, self-effacing Ellen McCarthy after I finished reading The Real Thing. I loved every lesson laid out in a book that wouldn't dare to call itself a field guide to marriage but amounts to as much on every page.

“Big banks churn out page after page of incomprehensible fine print to obscure the cost and risks of checking accounts, credit cards, mortgages and other financial products. The result is that consumers can't make direct product comparisons, markets aren't competitive, and costs are higher. If the playing field is leveled and the broken market fixed, a lot more money will stay in the pockets of millions of hard-working families. That's real stimulus - money to families, without increasing our national debt.” IfsRealHardBigsResultsMillionsRiskFieldsProductsHard WorkBrokenFineHigherCostPagesDirectAccountsFinancialCreditDebtCardsConsumersFixedPocketsComparisonPrintMore MoneyObscureStimulusMortgageCredit CardPlaying FieldsNational DebtFine PrintChecking Accounts Author:Elizabeth Warren

“It's critical to level the playing field, to make prices and risks clear up front, so when someone signs on for a student loan or a mortgage or a credit card, they know the tricks and traps hidden in the fine print. That's why the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has been working on a new financial aid shopping sheet. A shorter, two-page credit card agreement, a simpler mortgage disclosure form. All those are aimed toward helping people understand the basic bargain.” PeopleKnowsHas BeensTwoHelpingFormLevelsClearRiskFrontsFieldsStudentsFinePagesFinancialCreditCriticalProtectionAidsTricksCardsConsumersAgreementPrintShoppingTrapsSheetsLoanHelping PeopleBargainsMortgageCredit CardPlaying FieldsDisclosureStudent LoanFine PrintFinancial Aid Author:Elizabeth Warren
“In a badly designed book, the letters mill and stand like starving horses in a field. In a book designed by rote, they sit like stale bread and mutton on the page. In a well-made book, where designer, compositor and printer have all done their jobs, no matter how many thousands of lines and pages, the letters are alive. They dance in their seats. Sometimes they rise and dance in the margins and aisles.” WellsMadeBookSometimesMatterDoneJobsLinesAliveDesignFieldsPagesLettersHorseBreadDesignerSeatsStarvingMarginsMillsStaleAisleTypographyPrinterMutton Author:Robert Bringhurst

“There is not much talking now. A silence falls upon them all. This is no time to talk of hedges and fields, or the beauties of any country. Sadness and fear and hate, how they well up in the heart and mind, whenever one opens pages of these messengers of doom. Cry for the broken tribe, for the law and the custom that is gone. Aye, and cry aloud for the man who is dead, for the woman and children bereaved. Cry, the beloved country, these things are not yet at an end. The sun pours down on the earth, on the lovely land that man cannot enjoy. He knows only the fear of his heart.” KnowsMenMindWellsHeartChildrenEndsCountryEarthLawHateFallEnjoySilenceTalkingSunGoneSadnessLandCryFieldsBrokenPagesLovelyBelovedCustomsTribesHeart And MindDoomMessengersBeloved CountryCry The Beloved Country Author:Alan Paton
