"Gold will be around, gold will be money when the dollar and the euro and the yuan and the ringgit are mere memories."
Richard Russell
"'We didn't truly know the dangers of the market, because it was a dark market,' says Brooksley Born, the head of an obscure federal regulatory agency -- the Commodity Futures Trading Commission [CFTC] -- who not only warned of the potential for economic meltdown in the late 1990s, but also tried to convince the country's key economic powerbrokers to take actions that could have helped avert the crisis. 'They were totally opposed to it,' Born says. 'That puzzled me. What was it that was in this market that had to be hidden?'"

"Those entrapped by the herd instinct are drowned in the deluges of history. But there are always the few who observe, reason, and take precautions, and thus escape the flood. For these few gold has been the asset of last resort."
Antony C. Sutton
"Gold in US dollars is 25.7 % away from its all time high.
Gold in renminbi is 13.8 % away from its all time high.
Gold in euros is 3.2 % away from its all time high.
In many other (major) currencies gold is at an all time high."
Jan Nieuwenhuijs, the artist formerly known as Koos Jansen
"It is crudely general to suggest collective responsibility for the German populace. It is, however, fair to suggest that those who continued to defend the idea of Germanhood publicly as the war went on—when this had become synonymous with barbarity—were in fact renouncing their humanity for the sake of individual survival and peace of mind."
