It is worth noting that 'too big to fail' is not simply about size. A big institution is 'too big' when there is an expectation that government will do whatever it takes to rescue that institution from failure, thus bestowing an effective risk premium subsidy. Reforms to end 'too big to fail' must address the causes of this expectation.

Jerome Powell

Forget about banks that are too big to fail; the focus should be on cities, municipalities and countries that are too big to fail.

Andrew Ross Sorkin

We're still under the weight of this impression that the ocean is too big to fail, that the planet is too big to fail.

Sylvia Earle

My fantasy is to break up the big banks. I wish we would end 'too big to fail' in our banking system.

Kenneth C. Griffin

When you have three out of the four largest banks in America today, bigger than they were - significantly bigger than when we bailed them out because they were too big to fail, I think if Teddy Roosevelt were alive today, a good Republican by the way, what he would say is: Break them up; they are too powerful economically; they are too powerful politically.

Hillary Clinton

Today's comics use four-letter words as a shortcut to thinking. They're shooting for that big laugh and it becomes a panic thing, using four-letter words to shock people.

Red Skelton

We talk about institutions that are too big to fail - I think the story is as much about people who think they are too big to fail.

Andrew Ross Sorkin

Every time I say the word capitalism, everyone just assumes I have plenty of Marxism in me, I do. But Russia and China had their bloody revolutions and even while they were Communist, they had the same idea about generating wealth - tear it out of the bowels of the earth. And now they have come out with the same idea in the end... you know, capitalism. But capitalism will fail, too.

Arundhati Roy

Conceit, more rich in matter than in words, Brags of his substance, not of ornament: They are but beggars that can count their worth; But my true love is grown to such excess, I cannot sum up half my sum of wealth.

William Shakespeare

The kind of capitalism I hate most is crony capitalism, the friends who decide. These are things which should be killed in Russia.

Anatoly Chubais

If a bank's too big so that it can't fail without hurting our economy, well then, it's too big.

Martin O'Malley

No bank should be too big or too complex to fail, but almost any bank is too big to liquidate quickly, particularly in the midst of a crisis.

Henry Paulson

We need to think deeply about whether we can sustain banks that are not only too big to fail, but potentially too big to bail.

George Osborne

Liberalism is wrong because it doesn't work. If a company is too big to fail, it is too big to exist.

George Will

You can't have some institutions that are protected by the law, not allowed to fail, and not held to account, and all the other companies in America are allowed to fail. You can't have equal justice under law and too big to fail.

Eric Schneiderman

I wake up every morning fearing I am going to fail. But I love a challenge, big or small. There's so much I want to do. I only sleep four hours a night.
