In the back of my mind, always, is the firmly held belief that public policies must serve the long-term interests and well-being of the community at large.

Carrie Lam

I will maintain the position that, long-term, a strong and dependable dollar is in the best interests of the United States while recognizing that, at times over the long-term, that may not be the case.

Steve Mnuchin

If you're long-term oriented, customer interests and shareholder interests are aligned.

Masaaki Imai

We need to get beyond the politics of the moment, the deficit of the hour, the military count of the day, the numbers that rarely shape events. Our long-term interests must be in people and in the values of democracy and individual liberty.

Bill Bradley

Janet Yellen

If Ibsen's 'Enemy of the People' were alive today, he would recognize the ethic that has informed capitalist and communist countries alike - economic growth before public health and well-being. The true enemies of the people ar those who continue to sacrifice our long-term interests for short-term gains. But perhaps we should all look in the mirror.

Susannah York
