Richard C. Armitage

I believe that Judaism was an improvement on polytheism; Christianity was an improvement on Judaism (to some degree and in some departments only); that Protestantism is an improvement on Catholicism; that Mormonism is an improvement on Protestantism. So I give Joseph Smith credit as an innovator and as a smart fellow.

Thomas Ferguson

In pursuing personal growth, there are issues where we can advance just so far by ourselves.

Shri Radhe Maa

Inflation is certainly low and stable and, measured in unemployment and labour-market slack, the economy has made a lot of progress. The pace of growth is disappointingly slow, mostly because productivity growth has been very slow, which is not really something amenable to monetary policy. It comes from changes in technology, changes in worker skills and a variety of other things, but not monetary policy, in particular.

Ben Bernanke

Malcolm X

The man who reads only for improvement is beyond the hope of much improvement before he begins.

Jonathan Daniels

It's impossible for China to keep 10 to 15% growth annually. The economy needed to slow down, and we have to learn to slow down.

Jack Ma

School improvement is not a mystery. Incremental, even dramatic improvement is not only possible but probable under the right conditions.

Michael J. Schmoker

The growth of a nation's productive potential is the central factor in determining its growth in real wages and living standards.... high rates of investment and saving usually have a big payoff in promoting economic growth.
