1 " If we can agree that the economic problem of society is mainly one of rapid adaptation to changes in the particular circumstances of time and place, it would seem to follow that the ultimate decisions must be left to the people who are familiar with these circumstances, who know directly of the relevant changes and of the resources immediately available to meet them. "
― Friedrich A. Hayek , The Use of Knowledge in Society
2 " The central element in the economic problem of money is the objective exchange-value of money, popularly called its purchasing power. "
― Ludwig von Mises
3 " The day is not far off when the economic problem will take the back seat where it belongs, and the arena of the heart and the head will be occupied or reoccupied, by our real problems - the problems of life and of human relations, of creation and behavior and religion. "
