The comparatively greater prosperity of the United States is an outcome of the fact that the New Deal did not come in 1900 or 1910, but only in 1933 Picture Quote #1
American authors or scientists are prone to consider the wealthy businessman as a barbarian, as a man exclusively intent upon making money Picture Quote #1
The only source of the generation of additional capital goods is saving. If all the goods produced are consumed, no new capital comes into being Picture Quote #1
The government and its chiefs do not have the powers of the mythical Santa Claus. They cannot spend except by taking out of the pockets of some people for the benefit of others Picture Quote #1
In talking about equality and asking vehemently for its realization, nobody advocates a curtailment of his own present income Picture Quote #1

Progress of any kind is always at variance with the old and established ideas and therefore with the codes inspired by them. Every step of progress is a change involving heavy risks Picture Quote #1
Those who are asking for more government interference are asking ultimately for more compulsion and less freedom Picture Quote #1
All this talk: The state should do this or that, ultimately means: The police should force consumers to behave otherwise than they would behave spontaneously Picture Quote #1
What economic calculation requires is a monetary system whose functioning is not sabotaged by government interference Picture Quote #1
As the science of economics... exploded the fallacies of every brand of utopianism, it was outlawed and stigmatized as unscientific Picture Quote #1
They [intellectuals] coined most of the slogans that guided the butcheries of Bolshevism, Fascism, and Nazism. Intellectuals extolling the delights of murder, writers advocating censorship, philosophers judging the merits of thinkers and authors, not according to the value of their contributions but according to their achievements on battlefields, are the spiritual leaders of our age of perpetual strife Picture Quote #1

[T]he essence of so-called war prosperity: it enriches some by what it takes from others. It is not rising wealth but a shifting of wealth and income Picture Quote #1
Liberalism and capitalism address themselves to the cool, well-balanced mind. They proceed by strict logic, eliminating any appeal to the emotions. Socialism, on the contrary, works on the emotions, tries to violate logical considerations by rousing a sense of personal interest and to stifle the voice of reason by awakening primitive instincts Picture Quote #1
The salesman thanks the customer for patronizing his shop and asks him to come again. But the socialists say: Be grateful to Hitler, render thanks to Stalin; be nice and submissive, then the great man will be kind to you later too Picture Quote #1
The market economy needs no apologists and propagandists. It can apply to itself the words of Sir Christopher Wren’s epitaph in St. Paul’s: ‘If you seek his monument, look around.’ Picture Quote #1
Only one thing can conquer war-that attitude of mind which can see nothing in war but destruction and annihilation Picture Quote #1
The recurrence of periods of depression and mass unemployment has discredited capitalism in the opinion of injudicious people. Yet these events are not the outcome of the operation of the free market. They are on the contrary the result of well-intentioned but ill-advised government interference with the market Picture Quote #1
Advertisements
Not mythical material productive forces, but reason and ideas determine the course of human affairs. What is needed to stop the trend toward socialism and despotism is common-sense and moral courage Picture Quote #1
[E]conomic history is a long record of government policies that failed because they were designed with a bold disregard for the laws of economics Picture Quote #1
The characteristic feature of capitalism that distinguishes it from pre-capitalist methods of production was its new principle of marketing. Capitalism is not simply mass production, but mass production to satisfy the needs of the masses Picture Quote #1
Man is born an asocial and antisocial being. The newborn child is a savage. Egoism is his nature. Only the experience of life and the teachings of his parents, his brothers, sisters, playmates, and later of other people FORCE HIM to acknowledge the advantages of social cooperation and accordingly to change his behavior Picture Quote #1
It is merely a metaphor to call competition competitive war, or simply, war. The function of battle is destruction; of competition, construction Picture Quote #1
Credit expansion is the governments’ foremost tool in their struggle against the market economy. In their hands it is the magic wand designed to conjure away the scarcity of capital goods, to lower the rate of interest or to abolish it altogether, to finance lavish government spending, to expropriate the capitalists, to contrive everlasting booms, and to make everybody prosperous Picture Quote #1
