Science Quotes by Adam Smith (pseudonym) (2 quotes)
Every day we are interacting with the economy, whether we want to or not, and whether we know it or not. To have a level of control over our lives, we need to understand the connections between money and events and ourselves.
— Adam Smith (pseudonym)
As quoted in brochure for PBS TV financial news series, Adam Smith’s Money World.
The robot is going to lose. Not by much. But when the final score is tallied, flesh and blood is going to beat the damn monster.
— Adam Smith (pseudonym)
In The Money Game (1967), 154.
In science it often happens that scientists say, 'You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken,' and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens every day. I cannot recall the last time something like that happened in politics or religion.
(1987) --
