James Thomson

Real income growth is deteriorating because of job losses, and income growth is going to remain weak until such time as it's reversed by a tax cut, which is months away at the earliest. Then there's a huge wealth loss [from the stock market] and no pent-up demand for goods.

Lacy Hunt

The growing trend of globalization has brought the so-called economic boom, but at the same time, it has also exacerbated the imbalance of development between different countries, and the unfair distribution of wealth in the world.

Mike Easley

The supply of homes is very tight for new and existing homes. We will continue to see healthy home-price appreciation. For non-home owners, that's bad news. But for home owners, that's building wealth.

Mark Weldon

The kids are out of the house, they're in their prime earning years, and they stand to inherit a huge amount of wealth.

Bob Whitley

Typically when you have people with sudden wealth, they need a long-term plan to protect it from themselves. There's this initial pent-up desire to spend. Cars, houses, and gifts of money for so-and-so. Everyone is going to be your friend.

Mark Groesbeck

Everyone in business is going to tell you that competition is good for business. It?s without a doubt that those banks are choosing to locate here for a reason. What their market studies are saying is, there?s enough banking interest still in northwest Arkansas to ? pardon the pun ? spread the wealth.

Rich Davis

He has a wealth of experience. He said he'd help in any capacity we wanted. He has a lot of insight.

Doug Berk

Ric Edelman

An unhurried sense of time is in itself a form of wealth.

Ayman Nour

Our job is to awaken the wealth of the community to do something in their own community.

Kemper Freeman

I have no riches but my thoughts, yet these are wealth enough for me.

Sarah J. Hale

This program will use the network of more than 800 local Red Cross chapters across the country to help families map out their own individual roads to recovery.

Louis Kincannon

We want a diversified economy. And seniors who move here want to be a part of that diversified community, and they bring new wealth into the community.

Tom Mullins

The contract brings in everybody, domestic Chinese and Korean. It's more of a political gesture to share the wealth, and throw a bone to the U.S..

Duncan Clark

So the stock market could have a negative wealth effect and weigh on capital spending, but a sharp decline in long-term interest rates would be an important counterweight.

Robert Barbera

Unfortunately, sometimes you see big wealth transfers occur when something becomes scarce.

Severin Borenstein

Part of that is realizing the wealth of American music available.

It is not wealth one asks for, but just enough to preserve one's dignity, to work unhampered, to be generous, frank and independent.

W. Somerset Maugham

The labor of women in the house, certainly, enables men to produce more wealth than they otherwise could; and in this way women are economic factors in society. But so are horses.

Michael Garcia

Barbara Manning

Although the mock trial may pose a different situation than the one presented in 'To Kill a Mockingbird,' we hope that people will come away with a similar theme ? that outcomes from our judicial system should not be at all based upon a person's race, wealth, status, or other such factors.

Karen Sloan

Jenny kiss'd me when we met, Jumping from the chair she sat in; Time, you thief, who love to get Sweets into your list, put that in! Say I'm weary, say I'm sad, Say that health and wealth have miss'd me, Say I'm growing old, but add, Jenny kiss'd m.

Leigh Hunt

Spain's strong consumer spending is backed not only by job creation but also by a significant rise in debt, and to an extent by the perception of higher wealth gains from soaring housing prices.

Carmen Nuzzo

Francis Quarles

Lance is a high-character individual with a wealth of coaching experience, ... His strong familiarity with our league and his recruiting ties in this region of the country will be a valuable addition to our program. Lance's infectious energy on the court will enhance our staff's presence and will be an asset to our players.

Quin Snyder

What immigration really does is redistribute wealth away from workers toward employers.

George Borjas

Divorce causes a decrease in wealth that is larger than just splitting a couple's assets in half.

Jay Zagorsky

In 2006, we have a number of initiatives in our wealth management and insurance business which will take advantage of the increasing size of our retail customer base.

David Willis

Many of these people may have separated before the divorce became official, which would help explain why wealth starts falling so early. Some people may also be working less and not trying as hard to build wealth as they have marriage troubles. Divorce is often a long and messy process, and you can see this in the four-year decline in wealth.

Jay Zagorsky

I've been able to sit in rooms, and coach against, and work with people in this area that have a wealth of knowledge. As an assistant it's been awesome.

Jim Ralph

We do a wealth of stuff (live), drawing from over the years.

Jorma Kaukonen

Bill Gates wants people to think he's Edison, when he's really Rockefeller. Referring to Gates as the smartest man in America isn't right... wealth isn't the same thing as intelligence.

Larry Ellison

There has been a tremendous amount of wealth that we have seen come into our area.

Steve High

It was kind of tough, actually, editing it down and getting what we wanted into this issue. There's a wealth of material out there.

Lawrence Bilotti

He is a quality Premier League player and gives us a wealth of experience. Hopefully he can be a part of keeping us in the Premier League.

Antowain Smith

Property left to a child may soon be lost; but the inheritance of virtue--a good name an unblemished reputation--will abide forever. If those who are toiling for wealth to leave their children, would but take half the pains to secure for them virtuous habits, how much more serviceable would they be. The largest property may be wrested from a child, but virtue will stand by him to the last.

William Graham Sumner

That's a sharp contrast to Gore's 'People v. Powerful Business,' delivered last week on Capitol Hill, ... is in the hands of an elite, which embodies wealth and power and represents them at the expense of citizens.

Judy Woodruff

Addie brings with her a wealth of development experience which will prove invaluable. I look forward to working with Addie to build a memorial that will forever honor the lives lost and the humanity which overcame terror.

Gretchen Dykstra

The wealth of information in this Hubble survey, including seeing stars of all sizes in one dense place, provides an extraordinary opportunity to study star formation. Our goal is to calculate the masses and ages for these young stars so that we can map their history and get a general census of the star formation in that region. We can then sort the stars by mass and age and look for trends.

Massimo Robberto

HOPE VI isn't here just to build houses. It's here to build lives. The hope is, if construction is for them, they can figure out their specialty. By helping them to start deciding on careers, we can help them down the path of homeownership. That can lead to the building of equity and wealth in their lives.

Brendan Moore

Was in the process of assembling an army of attorneys, economists and IAM representatives with a wealth of airline bankruptcy experience and resources to ensure our members are treated fairly and their rights protected both in the courtroom and at the bargaining table.

Dave Kolpak

That spot of earth has special charms for me, in which a limited income produces happiness, and moderate wealth abundance.

Marcus Valerius Martialis

[The cemetery shows the fleetingness of fame and wealth. Anyone remember John Finley, a Princeton politics professor who was also editor in chief of The New York Times until he retired in 1938? Mr. Sutphen pointed out the modest tombstone of Howard T. Behrman, 1912-1985:] He gave $20 million to Princeton University and I bet no one even looks at this. ... Monuments getting bigger.

The Brothers Grimm

We need reforms that will enable us to thrive in a dynamic, open, world market and not seek to shut our borders and go down a path proven to lead to reduced national wealth and overall lower standards of living.

Aaron Lukas

These are the sectors that attract and retain talented young people and build regional wealth.

Harold Miller

By a continuing process of inflation, government can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens.

John Maynard Keynes

Many FOP members are unaware of the devastating impact that impaired credit can have on their financial security and their ability to improve their daily lives. Without good credit, it is difficult to save money, become a homeowner and accumulate wealth.

Bob Martinez

He just has a wealth of knowledge that no one else on the staff has. I don't think we're as strong without him. He would have been difficult to replace. I'm just grateful we didn't have to do that.

Tom Holmoe

There are huge amounts of wealth creation, especially given the disproportionate growth of those markets relative to the developed world.

Damian Kozlowski

John is going to focus on education of the community and fire district personnel. He as a great wealth of knowledge and experience that needs to be passed on to benefit the future of the fire department.

Andrew Camillo

We continue to be interested, we continue to see targets, we continue to analyze and look at opportunities. We do want to invest (in wealth management), ... We do have room for buying back (more shares), but the first priority remains to invest in the business.

Peter Wuffli

I am delighted that we have such talented swimmers who have qualified at the first opportunity offered to them at the Commonwealth Trials in August. This group have a wealth of experience to call upon.

Robert James

Whereas there's a wealth of galleries in Australia, everyone's got a gallery in Australia or wants your work. Because the art scene is smaller in Indonesia, there's not so much competition.

Andrew Jack

Eminent domain abuse denies the people who the Framers cared most about the right to create wealth through property ownership. This assault on our constitution not only denies them this right, but by forcing them out, it in effect creates other depressed areas that eventually will be claimed by the powerful for their own selfish gain. We must resist such tyranny at every turn.

Mychal Massie

India is an extremely young country and has an average age of 26 - this is driving a lot of new trends. At the same time as the drop in average age, there has been an economic boom and huge wealth creation. You have this young, rich population with nothing to spend their money on. There is a huge groundswell towards adventure tourism. Skiing is going to take off.

John Sims

When lawmakers seek to rewrite our Fourth Amendment rights, they should at least have the gumption to do so in public. Americans have a reasonable expectation that their federal government will not gather records about their health, their wealth and the transactions of their daily life without probable cause of a crime and without a court order.

Lisa Graves

It is reminiscent of the Japan-based boom of the 1960s that seemed destined to create unbounded wealth.

David Fox

The exact measure of the progress of civilization is the degree in which the intelligence of the common mind has prevailed over wealth and brute force.

George Bancroft

Wealth itself is not a bad idea provided it is directed towards public good. So is power. However, the danger lies in its misuse.

Andrew Arulanandam

The exercise of the right inherent in every sovereign state of creating and issuing a sufficiency of money to make financially possible what is physically possible and morally desirable, would enable as much real wealth to be brought into existence as, with its immense inventive and scientific potential, it is capable of making.

Arthur Bryant

Thirst of wealth no quiet knows,But near the death-bed fierce grows.

Anne Finch

[In the 1960s, liberals] were arguing there was a constitutional basis to allow a judicially imposed redistribution of wealth: 'Why should one person live in a hovel and another live in a palace?', ... None of it got off the ground.

David Rivkin

Both candidates were running as agents of change, but instead of using their wealth to sell their agendas, these multimillionaires have squandered money on attacks. It's not that the charges are scandalous; this is the usual stuff we see in New Jersey. It's the amount of ads these guys have paid for.

David Rebovich

The key is that people need to be saving in other ways, using investment vehicles, stocks, bonds, and not rely so heavily on their homes as a means of building wealth.

Sophie Beckmann

Bob was famous for dragging in every shred of paper. I know I've wondered at times, 'What is the value of this?' But this collection, while it was a nightmare for Carolyn, is a wealth of untapped information on the social history of a community.

Susan Young

The wealth of the tall grass prairie was its undoing.

John Madson

Before Katrina hit New Orleans, it was already one of the poorest places in the country, ... I think it is right to gather and look at an agenda for more equitable distribution of wealth in America, at what are we going to do about affordable housing and education.

Charles Barron

I can bring to a classroom a wealth of information, because I have been there.

Michael Dukakis

Power is not of a man. Wealth does not center in the person of the wealthy. Celebrity is not inherent in any personality. To be celebrated, to be wealthy, to have power requires access to major institutions.

C. Wright Mills

The problem with Sarbanes-Oxley is that it means 20 different things to 10 different people. There's a tremendous wealth of folklore that has been built up around it in the IT sector. A lot of people are trying to push us into spending money on Sarbanes-Oxley compliance, but I trust our auditors.

Richard Cross

Whether you're investing for your child's university tuition, a prosperous retirement or a higher quality of life, Value Stock Selector is the easiest and best software package available to help you start building solid wealth right now.

Mark Hing

In my opinion, most of the great men of the past were only there for the beer - the wealth, prestige and grandeur that went with the power.

A. J. P. Taylor

Many people despise wealth, but few know how to give it away.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld

Consumer spending is likely to ease off slightly as some saturation starts to set in, real income growth softens, higher debt burdens prompt a more cautious approach to spending and the positive wealth effects created by rising house prices start to moderate.

Dennis Dykes

The way it hurts is when housing prices peak and then we no longer have this wealth effect that has been driving consumer spending. And so far, housing prices are growing at double-digit rates. But it's going to happen sometime, and we think it's going to happen probably starting in the second quarter.

Patrick Newport

The truth is that economic competition is the very opposite of competition in the animal kingdom. It is not a competition in the grabbing off of scarce nature-given supplies, as it is in the animal kingdom. Rather, it is a competition in the positive creation of new and additional wealth.

George Reisman

The administration has found mounting evidence that Venezuela is actively using its oil wealth to destabilize its democratic neighbors in the Americas by funding anti-democratic groups in Bolivia and elsewhere.

Matthew Reynolds

There is a lot of money that is going into the local economies all over the state. This is new wealth, and I believe in the power of new wealth. These dollars are used locally and will create jobs and economic development in areas where there may not have been opportunities before.

Brian Woldt

Wealth can only be accumulated by the earnings of industry and the savings of frugality.

John Tyler

The addition of Deion to our ownership brings a charismatic and creative leader with a wealth of professional sports experience and a great marketing flare.

Doug Macgregor

Poor is the man who does not know his own intrinsic worth and tends to measure everything by relative value. A man of financial wealth who values himself by his financial net worth is poorer than a poor man who values himself by his intrinsic self worth.

Sidney Madwed

I am pleasantly surprised at the wealth of artistic talent that has had a connection to South Jersey, either historic or present day. But I am even more surprised that we continue to learn of more such artists and entertainers every year. Any region of any state would be proud to be associated with artists of such stature.

Mark Fields

The fundamental fact of American politics - and I've sharpened my view on this since last year and the hardcover edition of the book - is that we've got an alliance between the religious right and the accumulators of great wealth. Those are the people who are running things.

Paul Krugman

Their safe haven status would no longer be required. However, industrial inputs, as opposed to stores of wealth, would not suffer as much. And equity markets would benefit from an unwinding of oil prices because the cost implications of existing high oil prices for earnings potential are horrific.

Tony Twine

At its most base level, the sheer wealth of these candidates shows that representative democracy in California isn't representative at all. These are wealthy, white individuals and that makes it that much harder for them to represent all of California's diversity.

Ned Wigglesworth

The loss of wealth is loss of dirt, as sages in all times assert; The happy man's without a shirt.

John Heywood

This should be a matter of public concern. After all, one reason taxpayers must pay more every April is that wealth made over to foundations not only avoids inheritance levies but becomes tax-exempt in its new incarnation.

Andrew Hacker

It'll end up being a pretty significant hit. It's easy to forget that these natural disasters destroy wealth. ... You can't make that up.

James Glassman

In the world of the celebrity, the hierarchy of publicity has replaced the hierarchy of descent and even of great wealth.

C. Wright Mills

The black farmer, working hard for his own, became the living symbol of the strong, independent black man. Farming also allowed black families to move into other businesses, from funeral homes to preaching to construction, and thus served as the bedrock of all black wealth in America.

Juan Williams

This can happen, ... The moon is going to be the industrial center of all the things we do in space. It truly is a frontier. There is incredible wealth out there.

Ben Bova

Part of the purchasing decision for buying a house is an expectation of what housing prices are going to do in the future. It's true that houses are getting more and more expensive, but people are increasing their wealth in ways we haven't seen in a while.

Amy Cutts

One of the key concerns of the Fed has been the wealth effect that the stock market has created. And with the market that we saw this morning, we're likely to see more volatility going forward, especially if it leads to more muted market activity on the return side.

Walt Czaicki

We're going to see a lot of the money that has been parked in real estate move back to stocks. Wealth should not be centered in your residential real estate, which is going to return to more stable to flat appreciation.

Brian Mcquade

Carole brings a wealth of experience to this critical position. She will play a key role as we further differentiate the Staples easy brand, consistently affirming that Staples helps make work life easier.
