Note 703 — Chapter I · : THE OPTIMISTS

“Economic phenomena are not without their efficient cause and their Providential aim.” (Harmonies, last page.)

“Looking at this harmony, the economist can join with the astronomer and the physiologist and say: Digitus Dei est hic.” (Ibid., chap. 10, p. 39.)

“If everyone would only look after his own affairs, God would look after everybody’s.” (Ibid., chap. 8, p. 290.)
