People have more dimensions to them than we give them credit for. The person you meet on the street that you think is someone, and it’s someone else. I’m mistaken for someone else all the time. – Parker Posey
They’re sheep. They like Bush enough to credit him with saving the nation after 9/11. Three thousand people get killed, and everybody thinks they’re next on the list. The president comes along, and he’s got his six-guns strapped on, and people think he’s going to save them. – Ed Asner
There is no limit to what a man can do so long as he does not care a straw who gets the credit for it. – Charles Edward Montague
I had begun to worry about the housing market back in 2003, when lenders first resurrected interest-only mortgages, loosening their credit standards to generate a greater volume of loans. Throughout 2004, I had watched as these mortgages were offered to more and more subprime borrowers – those with the weakest credit. – Michael Burry
We’re not running the ball again until we get ahead. Shula was calling the plays, but I told them, ‘I don’t care what he calls. We’re throwing every pass from now until we get the lead.’ To Shula’s credit, he always gave me that option. – Dan Marino
I’m a neurotic Jew who doesn’t want loans. I can’t even carry a balance on my credit card without having a nervous breakdown. – Duff Goldman
The ‘boom-bust’ cycle is generated by monetary intervention in the market, specifically bank credit expansion to business. – Murray Rothbard
On any measure, Spain’s bank rescue has been a disaster. A hundred million euros have been added to the national debt, ten-year bonds are at a record high and the country’s credit rating has been downgraded three notches. – Daniel Hannan
Everything we do in the digital realm – from surfing the Web to sending an e-mail to conducting a credit card transaction to, yes, making a phone call – creates a data trail. And if that trail exists, chances are someone is using it – or will be soon enough. – Douglas Rushkoff
Every year the Federal Government wastes billions of dollars as a result of overpayments of government agencies, misuse of government credit cards, abuse of the Federal entitlement programs, and the mismanagement of the Federal bureaucracy. – Chris Chocola
When I moved to Los Angeles, I was straight out of grad school, and I didn’t have a single credit to my name. I knew one person in town – another actor whose name is John Billingsley. I just had to audition and audition and audition. I was plugging away for 15 years. So I earned my stripes! – Darby Stanchfield
It’s really frustrating when you’re an identity-theft victim, and you go to the police and you say, ‘This guy in Florida, he stole my name and got a credit card – this is his address,’ and they say, ‘We don’t have jurisdiction in Florida. You need to go to the FBI.’ – Frank Abagnale
Being on food stamps can be demeaning. Cashiers know the difference between the new plastic SNAP cards and a credit card. Some food stamp recipients say some cashiers have made them feel uncomfortable and embarrassed. – Donna Brazile
I don’t deserve any credit for turning the other cheek as my tongue is always in it. – Flannery O’Connor
I give so much credit to the ‘Up’ team who created appointment viewing on the weekends for us and some of the smartest conversations on television. – Chris Hayes
When you shop online, wouldn’t you like to sample the bouquet of wines, the aroma of cigars, or the subtle fragrance of flowers before surrendering your credit card number? Surely more companies will want to aromatize their Web presence when they realize there’s a device that can produce genuinely pleasing, authentic fragrances. – Charles Platt
Whenever I’ve been well-known or hitting the press, I’ve always had to get my credit card out to prove I’m Damien Hirst. – Damien Hirst
I’m very interested in the more grass-roots consequences of the economic meltdown: issues related to mortgage foreclosures, debt collection, and the practices of credit card companies and others who hold a lot of consumer debt. – Eric Schneiderman
There are only so many times I can say, ‘I owe it to my offensive linemen,’ or, ‘The credit should go to my teammates,’ before it becomes run down. – Marshawn Lynch
As ‘Austrian’ business cycle theory has pointed out, any bank credit inflation sets up conditions for boom-and-bust; there is no need for prices actually to rise. – Murray Rothbard
The NSA has built an infrastructure that allows it to intercept almost everything. With this capability, the vast majority of human communications are automatically ingested without targeting. If I wanted to see your emails or your wife’s phone, all I have to do is use intercepts. I can get your emails, passwords, phone records, credit cards. – Edward Snowden
There will be no name-calling when I disagree with anyone, no disparaging remarks toward anyone, no taking sole credit for collective achievements or blaming others when things go wrong. – David Ige
It is often laziness and timidity that keep us within our duty while virtue gets all the credit. – Francois de La Rochefoucauld
I’ve never gotten cash out of a machine. I use my credit cards, so I don’t need to do that. – Paula Creamer
It seems like they conflate Bruce and the Hulk. It’s usually, ‘Hulk!’ as I’m walking across the street. But sometimes it’s ‘Banner!’ If you go on my Twitter feed, you’ll see it’s mostly Hulk. I think it was pretty spectacular what we were able to accomplish with CGI with ‘The Hulk,’ and I can’t take full credit for that. – Mark Ruffalo
In an extreme credit crunch, leveraged purchases of gold cause forced sales, because any price correction triggers margin calls. As a result, gold can be very volatile – upward and downward – at the peak of a crisis. – Nouriel Roubini
