Text Quotes
Banks and other providers of credit to households have been competing vigorously to expand or protect their market share. In the process, lending standards have been progressively eroded so that lenders are now engaging in practices that would have been regarded as out of the question five or ten years ago  (Banks Quotes) The financial crisis has underscored how insufficient attention to fundamental corporate governance concepts can have devastating effects on an institution and its continued viability. It is clear that many banks did not fully implement these fundamental concepts. The obvious lesson is that banks need to improve their corporate governance practices and supervisors must ensure that sound corporate governance principles are thoroughly and consistently implemented  (Banks Quotes) I don’t drink much and I smoke very little. I guess my only bad habit is robbing banks. Now you see, fellas, I ain’t such a bad guy at heart  (Banks Quotes) Among the largest banks, the capital ratios remain good and I don’t expect any serious problems... among the large, internationally active banks that make up a very substantial part of our banking system  (Banks Quotes) When you own gold you’re fighting every central bank in the world. That’s because gold is a currency that competes with government currencies and has a powerful influence on interest rates and the price of government bonds. And that’s why central banks long have tried to suppress the price of gold. Gold is the ticket out of the central banking system, the escape from coercive central bank and government power  (Banks Quotes) Why did I rob banks? Because I enjoyed it. I loved it. I was more alive when I was inside a bank, robbing it, than at any other time in my life. I enjoyed everything about it so much that one or two weeks later I’d be out looking for the next job. But to me the money was the chips, that’s all  (Banks Quotes) What we miss is how unsustainable that is. Even bigger is the idea that we as a nation are not made up of businesses, banks, malls, markets, homes or things. Our greatest asset is ourselves: our lives and our people. The real investment should be there  (Banks Quotes) Every great decision creates ripples. Like a huge boulder dropping in a lake. The ripples merge and rebound off the banks in unforseeable ways. The heavier the decision, the larger the waves, the more uncertain the consequences  (Banks Quotes) Swipe fees have increased steadily since the introduction of debit cards 20 years ago, when there were no swipe fees at all. Merchants can’t negotiate or control them. They’ve tried, but they have no leverage against the big banks and issuers. So they get ignored  (Banks Quotes) We are committing ourselves to basic protections of our people... We will not permit banks to repossess the homes of working class and middle class people. That’s the end of that, it is not negotiable  (Banks Quotes) We have inherited a great music. This music is a holdover. It comes with us like the skin, the texture of our hair. It’s our memory banks  (Banks Quotes) People, governments and economies of all nations must serve the needs of multinational banks and corporations  (Banks Quotes) One’s mind and the earth are in a constant state of erosion, mental rivers wear away abstract banks, brain waves undermine cliffs of thought, ideas decompose into stones of unknowing, and conceptual crystallizations break apart into deposits of gritty reason  (Banks Quotes) Conservatives brayed that government should stay out of the private sector; liberals bleated for nationalizing the banks  (Banks Quotes) My favorite form of transportation is walking. I live in a neighborhood where you can walk to restaurants, banks, and shops  (Banks Quotes) It is no wonder that bank capital is regulated. When borrowing and lending is profitable, it is tempting for banks to scale up their operations and to borrow and lend too much in relation to their capital, in effect reducing the effectiveness of the potential capital cushion  (Banks Quotes) It would not be a bad idea if bankers were to go and sit occasionally with politicians in their political surgeries, where they might get a sense of the injustice that some of the community feel about the banks  (Banks Quotes) Whether or not you have good consumer protection has a big effect on safety and soundness of the banking community, especially smaller banks  (Banks Quotes) Banks are so protected from liability they would have to really do something that was their mistake in order for them to be liable for it. Banks don’t look at signatures. They’re processing millions of checks and they have very little liability  (Banks Quotes) What the study I chaired actually said was we needed tougher regulation of cash and capital in banks, as credit was too easy. Events proved that right  (Banks Quotes) We need to increase the transparency of shadow banking markets so that authorities can monitor for signs of excessive leverage and unstable maturity transformation outside regulated banks  (Banks Quotes) In a swamp, as in meditation, you begin to glimpse how elusive, how inherently insubstantial, how fleeting our thoughts are, our identities. There is magic in this moist world, in how the mind lets go, slips into sleepy water, circles and nuzzles the banks of palmetto and wild iris, how it seeps across dreams, smears them into the upright world, rots the wood of treasure chests, welcomes the body home  (Banks Quotes) Why can’t fellows be allowed to do what they like when they like and as they like, instead of other fellows sitting on banks and watching them all the time and making remarks and poetry and things about them?  (Banks Quotes) The hegemony of finance and the banks has produced the indebted. Control over information and communication networks has created the mediatized. The security regime and the generalized state of exception have constructed a figure prey to fear and yearning for protection-the securitized. And the corruption of democracy has forged a strange, depoliticized figure, the represented. These subjective figures constitute the social terrain on which-and against which-movements of resistance and rebellion must act  (Banks Quotes) Commercial banks are very good for certain businesses, like loans and guarding other people’s money. They’re not great investors or entrepreneurs  (Banks Quotes) Laugh with people laughing, cry with people crying, but don’t fall into the river of world illusion. Stay on the banks  (Banks Quotes) We look on those approaching the banks of a river all must cross, with ten times the interest they excited when dancing in the meadow  (Banks Quotes) We need to think deeply about whether we can sustain banks that are not only too big to fail, but potentially too big to bail  (Banks Quotes) Life can be lived at a remove. You trade in futures, and then you trade in derivatives of futures. Banks make more money trading derivatives than they do trading actual commodities  (Banks Quotes) Trapped in the bureaucracy nightmare, real families suffer when the big banks and their servicers force foreclosures. The emotional toll on children packing up their rooms and on parents struggling to find a temporary roof is a deep one  (Banks Quotes)
