If a currency is to become a growing, an increasing reserve currency, there has to be not only a demand for it there has to be a supply of it.

The world is constantly in a race to the top, in terms of there's a limited amount of capital and you've got to figure where it's going. And if your currency is weakening, that means you're paying a load.

Money is always there but the pockets change; it is not in the same pockets after a change, and that is all there is to say about money.

A currency designed for long-term storage and investment doesn't do so well at encouraging transactions and exchange in the moment.

Well, I make a practice of not commenting on the role of the relative exchange value of our currency.

There is never enough gold to redeem all the currency in circulation.

Eventually the dollar won't always rule. Eventually there will be a challenge to the United States and it will have to be like other countries that are a bit concerned about their currency, and then have to ratchet back in order to - right, in order to sustain. We just haven't reached that point yet.

Even if the dollar does decline during the coming months, the delays in the response of exports and imports to the more competitive dollar will mean that the increase in aggregate demand from this source may not happen for a year or more.

The price of every thing rises and falls from time to time and place to place; and with every such change the purchasing power of money changes so far as that thing goes.

The power to regulate the value of money does not involve a power to dilute the value of money by inflation, an absurd and self-serving rendering.
