Let's stop kidding ourselves that Greek debt is the Euro's key problem. With Greece gone, who's next ?

I don't think there's anything wrong with borrowing someone else's faith to get you through until you get enough on your own.

If I die today, will you remember me tomorrow?The love I'm leaving behind, will you care to borrow? From a snake-shed-skin or from the sky unknownIn all living and the dead I'll dwell to groan

There is a strange idea abroad, held by all monetary cranks, that credit is something a banker gives to a man. Credit, on the contrary, is something a man already has. He has it, perhaps, because he already has marketable assets of a greater cash value than the loan for which he is asking. Or he has it because his character and past record have earned it. He brings it into the bank with him. That is why the banker makes him the loan. The banker is not giving something for nothing.

I can lend you my money not my books.

A borrower who doesn't returns is a beggar.
