3 quotes from Lords of Finance

"The Great Depression was not merely a financial disaster; it was a human tragedy borne out of the failings of the men who managed the economy."
"In the end, it was the political will that was lacking; it was the ability of leaders to understand the interconnectedness of the global economy that failed them in their time of need."
