Money is indispensable to a long-circuit heavy load energy system. It must be used when a sufficient surplus is being produced to allow a margin for exchange, and cost of transport, over a considerable distance. Money represents a storage battery when idle, and a generalized mode of the conversion of energy when it is in motion, with a function of equating time and space (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
The craving for power is in itself a sign of inferior abilities and unfitness for responsibility (Isabel Paterson Quotes)

Now the sole remedy for the abuse of political power is to limit it; but when politics corrupt business, modern reformers invariably demand the enlargement of the political power (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
The only way to prevent prostitution altogether would be to imprison one half of the human race (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
Freedom is dangerous. Possibly crawling on all fours might be safer than standing upright, but we like the view better up there (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
If the state wants to eliminate prostitution, it would have to kill half of the population (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
As such, the least practicable measure of government must be the best. Anything beyond the minimum must be oppression (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
Most of the harm in the world is done by good people, and not by accident, lapse or omission (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
What kind of world does the humanitarian contemplate as affording him full scope? It could only be a world filled with breadlines and hospitals, in which nobody retained the natural power of a human being to help himself or to resist having things done to him. And that is precisely the world that the humanitarian arranges when he gets his way (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
People mostly do as they like, and that would be fine if they’d let other people do the same (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
If you go back 150 years you are a reactionary; but if you go back 1000 years, you are in the foremost ranks of progress (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
The power to do things for people is also the power to do things to people (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
If there were just one gift you could choose, but nothing barred, what would it be? We wish you then your own wish; you name it. Ours is liberty, now and forever (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
The biggest pests are the people who use altruism as an alibi. What they passionately wish is to make themselves important (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
Trade and money, which go together in a stream of energy, inevitably wash away the enclosing walls of a society of status (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
There can be no greater stretch of arbitrary power than is required to seize children from their parents, teach them whatever the authorities decree they shall be taught, and expropriate from the parents the funds to pay for the procedure (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
Right now it is a terrible thing to be a rugged individualist; but we don’t know what else to be except a feeble nonentity (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
Most of the harm in the world is done by good people, and not by accident, lapse, or omission. It is the result of their deliberate actions, long persevered in, which they hold to be motivated by high ideals toward virtuous ends... when millions are slaughtered, when torture is practiced, starvation enforced, oppression made a policy, as at present over a large part of the world, and as it has often been in the past, it must be at the behest of very many good people, and even by their direct action, for what they consider a worthy object (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
Do you think nobody would willingly entrust his children to you or pay you for teaching them? Why do you have to extort your fees and collect your pupils by compulsion? (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
The philanthropist, the politician, and the pimp are inevitably found in alliance because they have the same motives, they seek the same ends, to exist for, through, and by others (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
No law can give power to private persons; every law transfers power from private persons to government (Isabel Paterson Quotes)
