“Money has lost its narrative quality the way painting did once upon a time. Money is talking to itself.”

“The grand narrative has lost its credibility, regardless of what mode of unification is uses, regardless of whether it is a speculative narrative or a narrative of emancipation.”

“Unfortunately most ways of making big money take a long time. By the time one has made the money one is too old to enjoy it.”

“That money talks, I'll not deny, I heard it once: it said, 'goodbye”

“Money had no name of course. And if it did have a name, it would no longer be money. What gave money its true meaning was its dark-night namelessness, its breathtaking interchangeability.”

“Waste your money and you're only out of money, but waste your time and you've lost a part of your life.”

“The use of quantity of money as a target has not been a success. I'm not sure that I would as of today push it as hard as I once did.”

“I’ve learned that having a lot of money is more fun than not having a lot of money, and that once you’ve got it, it tends to grow all by itself, like a fire.”

“For even money itself has no value if there is no network of people to recognize it.”

“Through money, democracy becomes its own destroyer, after money has destroyed intellect.”
