• En nuestro programa electoral es: mantenemos el derecho a crear dinero y ponerlo en circulación, por la causa del gobierno ... Los que no comparten esta opinión, nos responden que la emisión de papel moneda es para los bancos, el gobierno debe mantenerse al margen del negocio bancario. Estoy de acuerdo con la opinión de Jefferson ... y al igual que él repito: la emisión de dinero es asunto del gobierno y los bancos deben mantenerse al margen de la actividad gubernamental.

• It does no one any good to say their novel sucks if you don't have an idea how to make it better, how to approach it from different angles and make it work. It's obviously a subjective process, right? But the thing about subjectivity, at least in the classroom, is that you're banking on your professor's subjectivity to be both personal and professional - that he or she has some sense about the world outside the workshop.

• Temporary nationalization of the banks that are in very bad shape would mean basically that the government is the temporary owner. I always believe that the government should focus on its comparative advantages, and banking is not one of them. It should, therefore, if it nationalizes banks, sell them back to the private sector.
