“Is it fair for the bears to come down to where humans live, looking for food? Is it fair for the Duke's soldiers to shoot at them? Is it fair for the bears to crush them with giant snowballs? Often, if you point out something that isn't fair, someone will reply, "Life isn't fair." What is to be done with such people?”

“To think about fairness, think of economic life as a game - a serious game. All ideas about fairness can be divided into two broad groups. They are:- It isn't fair if the result isn't fair.- It isn't fair if the rules aren't fair.”

“Life isn't fair. A fair's a place where you eat corn dogs and ride the ferris wheel.”

“People are always complaining that life's not fair, but that simply isn't true. Life is extraordinarily fair. It's just not centered on you.”
