"It is hard to imagine a more..." - Quote by Thomas Sowell

“Whenever someone refers to me as someone "who happens to be black," I wonder if they realize that both my parents are black. If I had turned out to be Scandinavian or Chinese, people would have wondered what was going on.”

“The biggest difference between people is between those who are trying to do the right thing - whether or not they succeed - and those for whom the only question is how much they can get away with.”

“Just as a poetic discussion of the weather is not meteorology, so an issuance of moral pronouncements or political creeds about the economy is not economics. Economics is a study of cause-and-effect relationships in an economy.”

“Where do I go from here?”

“Deciding what not to do is as important as deciding what to do.”

“The government of the world I live in was not framed, like that of Britain, in after-dinner conversations over the wine.”

“Leave no authority existing not responsible to the people.”

“Not to mend one's ways when one has erred is to err indeed.”

“That's just the way: a person does a low-down thing, and then he don't want to take no consequences of it. Thinks as long as he can hide it, it ain't no disgrace.”
