Quotes
- “The place of any good in this scale of values is determined ultimately by the strength of the subjective demand for it.”
- “The processes peculiar to economic life in a free society make evident the fundamental superiority of the spontaneous order over the commanded order.”
- “We need a combination of supreme moral sensitivity and economic knowledge. Economically ignorant moralism is as objectionable as morally callous economism. Ethics and economics are two equally difficult subjects, and while the former needs discerning and expert reason, the latter cannot do without humane values.”
- “The questionable things of this world come to grief on their nature, the good ones on their own excesses.”
- “Since men obviously cannot live in a religious vacuum, they cling to surrogate religions of all kinds, to political passions, ideologies, and pipe dreams—unless, of course, they prefer to drug themselves with the sheer mechanics of producing and consuming, with sport and betting, with sexuality, with rowdiness and crime and the thousand other things which fill our daily newspapers.”
- “However, and here we return again to our main theme, we would merely be deluding ourselves if we drew such a sharp dividing line between the realm of the spirit and the conditions of man's existence.”
