“If per capita was a problem, decapita could be arranged”

“Any industrial product that comes in per capita quanta beyond a given intensity exercises a radical monopoly over the satisfaction of a need.”

“On any given day in Spokane, Washington, there are more adult men per capita riding children's BMX bikes than in any other city in the world.”

“Who leads the world in consumption? America! Who has more lawyers per capita? America! Who has the highest incarceration rate? America! What is the greatest country on earth? America!”

“«Capita d'incontrare persone, anche a noi totalmente sconosciute, che ci cominciano ad interessare fin dal primo sguardo, per così dire di colpo, prima che abbiano detto una parola»”

“We give far more to charity per capita than Europeans do. Why? Are we born better? No. The bigger the government the worse the citizen. They are preoccupied in Europe with how much time off. Where will they vacation? When will they retire? These are selfish questions, these are not altruistic questions. So the goodness that America created is jeopardized by our not knowing what we stand for. That's our greatest threat. We are our problem.”
