Efficiency in government is a more elusive concept than efficiency in the private economy, which may be measured relatively easily as output per units of input. What is the government's 'output?'

Nathan Myhrvold

In a healthy economy, empowering, sustaining and efficiency innovations operate in balance. A healthy economy creates and sustains more jobs before squeezing out inefficiencies.

Clayton M. Christensen

There can be economy only where there is efficiency.

Benjamin Disraeli

The efficiency, credibility, and liquidity of the financial markets have been foundational to the largest economy in the world.

Dan Gilbert

There is an efficiency inspired by love which goes far beyond and is much greater than the efficiency of ambition; and without love, which brings an integrated understanding of life, efficiency breeds ruthlessness.

Jiddu Krishnamurti

The tremendous efficiency and economy of the book has once again demonstrated itself. It's the world's most patient medium.

Northrop Frye

Bill Gates

There are over 2 million cars standing in front of red lights with their engines going. Then we have over 2 million times approximately 100 horsepower being generated as they are idling there, so that we have something like 200 million horses jumping up and down and going nowhere. Now, we have to count that in our economy when we begin to get down to what is the efficiency of the economy.

The recent period has been marked by a transformation to an economy that is more productive as competitive forces become increasingly intense and new technologies raise the efficiency of our businesses...While these tendencies were no doubt in train in the "old," pre-1990s economy, they accelerated over the past decade as a number of technologies with their roots in the cumulative innovations of the past half-century began to yield dramatic economic returns.

Alan Greenspan

The practice of first developing a clear and precise definition of a process without regard for efficiency, and then using it as a guide and a test in exploring equivalent processes possessing other characteristics, such as greater efficiency, is very common in mathematics. It is a very fruitful practice which should not be blighted by premature emphasis on efficiency in computer execution.

Kenneth E. Iverson

The State of Virginia is similar to a great business corporation... and should be conducted with the same efficiency and economy as any private business.

Harry F. Byrd

... conscienceless efficiency is no match for efficiency quickened by conscience.

Johan Rockstrom

The barriers that renewables and efficiency face come less from our living in a capitalist market economy and more from not taking market economics seriously.

Amory Lovins

Efficiency may curtail [energy] demand in the short term, for the specific task at hand. But its long-term impact is just the opposite...efficiency fails to curb demand because it lets more people do more, and do it faster-and more/more/faster invariably swamps all the efficiency gains.
