Economics humor

An economist is a man who states the obvious in terms of the incomprehensible.” (Alfred A. Knopf)

“Economics is extremely useful as a form of employment for economists.” (John Kenneth Galbraith)

“An economist is an expert who will know tomorrow why the things he predicted yesterday didn’t happen today.” (Laurence J. Peter)

“An economist is a surgeon with an excellent scalpel and a rough-edged lancet, who operates beautifully on the dead and tortures the living.” (Nicholas Chamfort)
