- "I add this, that rational ability without education has oftener raised man to glory and virtue, than education without natural ability."

- "Chinese citizens have never had the right to really express their opinions; in the constitution it says you can, but in the real world it is more dangerous. In the west people think it’s a right they’re born with. Here it’s a right given by the government, and one that’s not really practised."― Ai Weiwei
- "Conventional wisdom on government’s role in inequality often has it backwards. Tax reforms have resulted in a more progressive federal income tax; government transfer payments have become less progressive."― Paul Ryan
