“In a nation distracted by faction, there are, no doubt, always a few, though commonly but a very few, who preserve their judgment untainted by the general contagion. They seldom amount to more than, here and there, a solitary individual, without any influence, excluded, by his own candour, from the confidence of either party, and who, though he may be one of the wisest, is necessarily, upon that very account, one of the most insignificant men in the society.” Adam Smith, The Theory of Moral Sentiments #adamsmith #quotes

“Little else is requisite to carry a state to the highest degree of opulence from the lowest barbarism, but peace, easy taxes, and a tolerable administration of justice: all the rest being brought about by the natural course of things.” Adam Smith, Lecture in 1755 (quoted in Dugald Stewart, Account Of The Life And Writings Of Adam Smith LLD, Section IV, 25.) #adamsmith #quotes
