“Inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon in the sense that it is and can be produced only by a more rapid increase in the quantity of money than in output... A steady rate of monetary growth at a moderate level can provide a framework under which a country can have little inflation and much growth. It will not produce perfect stability; it will not produce heaven on earth; but it can make an important contribution to a stable economic society.” LittlesImportantCountryEarthHeavenGrowthPerfectLevelsEconomicProduceIncreaseRateContributionPhenomenonStabilitySteadyQuantityStableInflationModeratesRapidsFrameworkMonetaryOutputHeaven On EarthImportant Contributions Author:Milton Friedman

“If there's a character type I despise, it's the all-capable, all-knowing, physically perfect protagonist.

“Nearly all creators of Utopia have resembled the man who has toothache, and therefore thinks happiness consists in not having toothache. They wanted to produce a perfect society by an endless continuation of something that had only been valuable because it was temporary. The wider course would be to say that there are certain lines along which humanity must move, the grand strategy is mapped out, but detailed prophecy is not our business.
