“...just as there are no atheists in foxholes, there are no libertarians in financial crises.”
Mark Carney, Value(s): Building a Better World for All

“leadership”
Mark Carney, Value(s): Building a Better World for All
“Arise for the work of humankind. Be humble. However grand you are today or may become tomorrow, you too will be forgotten. There are no places for us in the crypt of Westminster Abbey. Even if there were, with the centuries, our accomplishments would be forgotten and our names become puzzles. But our moral sentiments can live on as memes that multiply through values in the service of others. A worthy past sedimented into a better future.”
Mark Carney, Value(s): Building a Better World for All
