Quotes about powerful
powerful views hands
What's the single most important thing to learn from an economics course today? What I tried to leave my students with is the view that the invisible hand is more powerful than the [un]hidden hand.

powerful needs goes-on
Occam's razor suggests that, if some event is physically plausible, we don't need recourse to more extraordinary claims for its being.

powerful past rights
A free culture supports and protects creators and innovators. It does this directly by granting intellectual property rights. But it does so indirectly by limiting the reach of those rights, to guarantee that follow-on creators and innovators remain as free as possible from the control of the past. A free culture is not a culture without property, just as a free market is not a market in which everything is free. The opposite of a free culture is a "permission culture" -- a culture in which creators get to create only with the permission of the powerful, or of creators from the past. Lawrence Lessig
powerful crazy believe

Lawrence Lessig
