“Our supplies of natural resources are not finite in any economic sense. Nor does past experience give reason to expect natural resources to become more scarce. Rather, if history is any guide, natural resources will progressively become less costly, hence less scarce, and will constitute a smaller proportion of our expenses in future years.” IfsGivingYearsDoeReasonPastNaturalEconomicResourcesGuidesProportionExpensesFiniteSuppliesScarceNatural ResourcesPast Experiences Author:Julian Simon
“It is not for man to seek, or even to believe in, God. He only has to refuse his ultimate love to everything that is not God. This refusal does not presuppose any belief. It is enough to recognize what is obvious to any mind: that all the goods of this world, past, present, and future, real or imaginary, are finite and limited and radically incapable of satisfying the desire that perpetually burns within us for an infinite and perfect good.” MenWorldMindBelieveDoeRealEnoughPastDesireBeliefPerfectThis WorldUltimateInfiniteObviousRefuseGoodsBelieve In GodSatisfyingImaginaryIncapableFiniteRefusalPast PresentPast Present And FutureUltimate Love Author:Simone Weil
