Consumption Quotes

Capital is not a free gift of God or of nature. It is the outcome of a provident restriction of consumption on the part of man. It is created and increased by saving and maintained by the abstention from dissaving Picture Quote #1

The effort to eliminate synthetic pesticides because of unsubstantiated fears about residues in food will make fruits and vegetables more expensive, decrease consumption, and thus increase cancer rates. The levels of synthetic pesticide residues are trivial in comparison to natural chemicals, and thus their potential for cancer causation is extremely low. [Ames believes that to eat your veggies is the best way to prevent cancer.] Picture Quote #1

I don’t see a groundswell of people willing to raise gas taxes right now. That leaves fuel economy standards as the only effective tool we have as a nation to make a dent in our dangerous and ever growing consumption of oil Picture Quote #1

If anything needs to get fixed in society, it’s people’s consumption of other people’s problems Picture Quote #1

I just feel like everyone (including myself) on the planet is a little confused; we are all so driven by consumption - shopping, eating, getting high, whatever - anything to not feel what is really going on Picture Quote #1

The doomsayers of the 1970s were wrong about how quickly the world would run out of oil, but not about the dangers that hydrocarbon consumption posed to the global environment, especially with respect to climate change Picture Quote #1

Tailoring the facts to fit one’s theory constitutes neither good science nor good journalism. Rather, it is intellectually dishonest and, when published for consumption by a mass audience, adds up to propaganda Picture Quote #1

Economically, long-term joblessness means fewer dollars for consumption. For deficit control, it means fewer taxpayers contributing to government revenues and tens of billions more spent on unemployment insurance Picture Quote #1

I should come with a consumer warning, like the labels that say Handle with care or May be hazardous to your health. I am unfit for human consumption. I struggle to articulate how awful and isolating this feels, but I can’t find the words Picture Quote #1

The consumption society has made us feel that happiness lies in having things, and has failed to teach us the happiness of not having things Picture Quote #1

A healthy economy is largely a result of a reasonable balance between consumption today and consumption deferred, and it’s pretty clear that balance has been ridiculously out of whack for a while Picture Quote #1
