Market capitalism survived and prospered after the boom-bust industrial revolution of the 19th century, and the Great Depression and world wars of the 20th century. It will recover from the financial panic of 2008-09 and Obamanomics.

Market design is about understanding the details of markets in sufficient detail so that we can help fix them when they are broken.
‐‐ Alvin E. Roth
Market discipline can only limit moral hazard to the extent that debt and equity holders believe that, in the event of distress, they will bear costs.
‐‐ Ben Bernanke
Market forces and capitalism by themselves aren't sufficient to ensure the common good and to limit the concentration of wealth at levels that are compatible with democratic ideals.
‐‐ Thomas Piketty
Market forces impose certain rules before a film can actually get made.
‐‐ Alan Rickman
Market forces will one day crush the Federal Reserve. One day, the market forces will reverse.
‐‐ Marc Faber
Market fundamentalists recognize that the role of the state in the economy is always disruptive, inefficient, and generally has negative connotations. This leads them to believe that the market mechanism can take care of all the problems.
‐‐ George Soros
Market leadership can translate directly to higher revenue, higher profitability, greater capital velocity, and correspondingly stronger returns on invested capital.
‐‐ Jeff Bezos
Market research shows that older women like seeing older women in ads, and that younger women do, too - because they see them and are not frightened of growing older.
‐‐ Isabella Rossellini
Market segmentation s a natural result of the vast differences among people.
‐‐ Donald Norman
Market timing, by the way, is a tag some buy-and-hold investors use to put down anything that involves using your brain. These are the same people who like to watch the locomotive coming and get run down in the name of discipline.

Marketers are out there trying to figure out how to get your money out of your child.
‐‐ Maggie Gallagher
Marketers have long known that a name can make all the difference when you're trying to move the merch. The kiwifruit was once the Chinese gooseberry, after all - at least until the produce peddlers wised up - and the Chilean sea bass was once the singularly unappetizing Patagonian toothfish.
‐‐ Jeffrey Kluger
Marketers know - no matter how deep the emotional connection or brand loyalty - when a product does not perform, rational thought overtakes emotion, and most consumers make a new choice.
‐‐ Mark McKinnon
Marketers spend millions developing strategies to identify children's predilections and then capitalize on their vulnerabilities. Young people are fooled for a while, but then develop defense mechanisms, such as media-savvy attitudes or ironic dispositions. Then marketers research these defenses, develop new countermeasures, and on it goes.
‐‐ Douglas Rushkoff
Marketers use big data profiling to predict who is about to get pregnant, who is likely to buy a new car, and who is about to change sexual orientations. That's how they know what ads to send to whom. The NSA, meanwhile, wants to know who is likely to commit an act of terrorism - and for this, they need us.

Marketing and press kicks up dust. It gets in your eye, and then you're not focusing on the product.
‐‐ Jan Koum
Marketing executives like big budgets, as big budgets make it easier to grow the top line.
‐‐ Bill Gurley
Marketing for a film is tricky because you release stuff without context.
‐‐ Colin Trevorrow
Marketing has supplanted story as the primary force behind the worthiness of making a film, and that's a very sad thing. It's film only as a function of consumerism rather than as an important component of our culture, and that's everywhere around the world.
‐‐ Alexander Payne
Marketing is a contest for people's attention.
‐‐ Seth Godin
Marketing is a core part of anything you do.
‐‐ Keith Belling
Marketing is a very good thing, but it shouldn't control everything. It should be the tool, not that which dictates.
‐‐ Nicolas Roeg
Marketing is designed to bring people into something.
‐‐ Sue Naegle
Marketing is for companies who have sucky products.
‐‐ Fred Wilson
Marketing is not bragging, and touting one's wares is not evil. The baker in the medieval town square must holler, 'Fresh rolls!' if he hopes to feed the townfolk.
‐‐ Jeffrey Zeldman
Marketing is selling an ad to a firm. So, in some sense, a lot of marketing is about convincing a CEO, 'This is a good ad campaign.' So, there is a little bit of slippage there. That's just a caveat. That's different from actually having an effective ad campaign.
‐‐ Sendhil Mullainathan
Marketing is such a key issue; in fact, the marketing department is often involved in the approval of scripts now.
‐‐ Nicolas Roeg
Marketing is the devil.
‐‐ Billy Bob Thornton
Marketing is the obverse of programming.
‐‐ John McAfee
Marketing is too important to be left to the marketing department.
‐‐ David Packard
Marketing is what gets you noticed, and that side of it something - this side of it, if you like, doing interviews - is the side of it that I least enjoy, and yet is 50% of the project.
‐‐ Rowan Atkinson
Marketing is what you do when your product is no good.
‐‐ Edwin Land
Marketplaces by their nature tend to grow faster than most other companies.
‐‐ John Collison
Markets are a good thing, and they are the best way of ensuring we have fairness.
‐‐ Michael Hintze
Markets are as old as the crossroads. But capitalism, as we know it, is only a few hundred years old, enabled by cooperative arrangements and technologies, such as the joint-stock ownership company, shared liability insurance, double-entry bookkeeping.
‐‐ Howard Rheingold
Markets are constantly in a state of uncertainty and flux and money is made by discounting the obvious and betting on the unexpected.
‐‐ George Soros
Markets are designed to allow individuals to look after their private needs and to pursue profit. It's really a great invention and I wouldn't under-estimate the value of that, but they're not designed to take care of social needs.
‐‐ George Soros
Markets are frequently ahead of, and often out of sync with, the economy.
‐‐ Barry Ritholtz
Markets are, in the end, man-made devices for utilitarian purposes, not a force of nature that we should not try to resist. If they end up serving the interests of only a tiny minority, as is increasingly the case, we have the right - and indeed the duty - to regulate them in the interest of greater social good.
‐‐ Ha-Joon Chang
Markets are lethal, if only because of ignoring externalities, the impacts of their transactions on the environment.
‐‐ Noam Chomsky
Markets are saying pretty much what I'm saying too: that Greece is doing what it can, but that Greece is not going to be able to carry the weight of all of Europe and the other problems that Europe has.
‐‐ George Papandreou
Markets are very important but for the government the citizens are more so.
‐‐ Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero
Markets as well as mobs respond to human emotions; markets as well as mobs can be inflamed to their own destruction.
‐‐ Owen D. Young
Markets can do many wonderful things, which is why I'm glad to live in a capitalist country.
‐‐ Timothy Noah
Markets can't think about anything beyond about three months. This is very long-term for markets, which is why the important things in life have got to be taken outside of the marketplace.
‐‐ Susan George
Markets change, tastes change, so the companies and the individuals who choose to compete in those markets must change.
‐‐ An Wang
Markets do very weird things because it reacts to how people behave, and sometimes people are a little screwy.
‐‐ Alan Greenspan
Markets don't allow you to hang about.
