“An American economist of two generations ago, H. J. Davenport, who was the best friend Thorstein Veblen ever had (Veblen actually lived for a time in Davenport's coal cellar) once said: "There is no reason why theoretical economics should be a monopoly of the reactionaries." All my life I have tried to take this warning to heart, and I dare call it to your favorable attention.” ShouldHeartSaidTwoReasonAttentionGenerationsEconomicsDareReason WhyNo ReasonWarningCoalEconomistMonopolyTheoreticalReactionariesCellars Book:The Collected Scientific Papers of Paul Samuelson, Volume 3 Source: The Collected Scientific Papers of Paul Samuelson, Volume 3

“I started acting when I was five years old. I found it randomly, through listening to my brother study monologues. I auditorally started memorizing them for no reason, and started repeating them to anyone who would listen to me. And then, I begged my mom to let me do whatever that meant because I couldn't put into words exactly what that meant. It just meant me happy. And then, when I was 11 years old, I realized what I was doing and I looked to my mom and said, "Can I make this something I can do for the rest of my life?" She was like, "Yeah, sure, if you want to." And I was like, "Okay, great! I think I might want to do this forever."” ThinkingWantYearsSaidReasonMightFoundActingForeverStudyFiveBrotherListeningMomLet MeMy MomI RealizedMy BrotherFive YearsNo ReasonListen To MeFive Year OldsMonologuesMemorizing Author:Chloe Grace Moretz
