A Quote by Nick Harkaway

Throughout the '90s and early 2000s, our financial industry and governments leaned on a snake-oil mirage of wealth creation, a bubble predicated on the obvious falsehood that things could only get better.

I would say I'm a fan of late '90s to early 2000s rap. That's where I get all my inspiration from.

At the center of every recession is a serious imbalance in the economy and mirrored in the financial system. Think subprime mortgage and the Great Recession, or the technology bubble and the early 2000s recession. There are no such imbalances today.

Every generation has a different ways of telling a story. We had a great run in the early '90s, into the mid-'90s, and we became a little more executive-driven as we got into the 2000s.

We were born ahead of our time. Don't forget that the riot-grrl scene had a lot to do with making The Slits a legend, and that didn't happen until the early '90s. We couldn't get together before then, because the legend hadn't been built yet. In the 2000s, we've become bigger than life in that way. It's become really important for The Slits to be here now, but idealistically, we should have done it in the '90s.

Ari Up

There is enough oil in the ground to deep-fry the lot of us, and no obvious means to prevail upon governments and industry to leave it in the ground.

George Monbiot

I've always been a fan of music. I would say I'm a fan of late '90s to early 2000s rap. That's where I get all my inspiration from.

Late '90s, early 2000s, Rob was in a definite fog.

I think Dido's really cool. I feel like she kinda tapped in - back in the late '90s and early 2000s - she tapped into the ''90s-does-'70s' vibe.

In the late '90s and early 2000s, basketball was more about making your defender look stupid than scoring. Seriously. You could miss every layup, so long as you turned an ankle or buckled a knee.

Sean Evans

The '80s, '90s, and early 2000s genes of competitive fire are dead and gone.

Paul Pierce

Governments don't get elected saying, 'We're going to lower GDP next year,' governments get elected on saying, 'We're going to increase prosperity and the happiness and the wealth of our nations.' But that kind of capitalism will only lead to the destruction of our planet.

James Righton

The '90s and early 2000s were the 'I' decade. iPhone, the iPod - everything was about me. Look where that got us? In a terrible recession.

Adam Neumann

I took a bit of a back seat, I had kids and I wanted to focus on them. There's that period in the late '90s, the early 2000s, where I didn't do a great deal.

Gary Oldman

When I was in Italy in the 90s, early 2000s, everybody wanted to go to Italy, all the players.

Sven-Goran Eriksson

I'm a massive rom-com head! Like, every rom-com in the '90s and early 2000s, I've watched.

Kumail Nanjiani

Not understanding the process of a spontaneously-ordered economy goes hand-in-hand with not understanding the creation of resources and wealth. And when a person does not understand the creation of resources and wealth, the only intellectual alternative is to believe that increasing wealth must be at the cost of someone else. This belief that our good fortune must be an exploitation of others may be the taproot of false prophecy about doom that our evil ways must bring upon us.
