Gordon Brown
British Politician
We need quantitative assessments of the success of education. We need certification and qualifications both for teachers and for pupils. It is not a choice between quantity and quality, between access and excellence. Both of these will happen together if people really do believe in the importance of education to change lives.
Quote examples
Kevin Brady
American Politician

But then they tried to do too much with quantitative easing that went on forever, just dramatically exploding their balance sheets.
Quote examples
John Tukey
American Scientist

Quote examples
John Lanchester
British Journalist

James Tobin
American Economist
