Summary

This quote humorously juxtaposes power with narcotics, highlighting how power can be addictive and intoxicating. It suggests that the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), a regulatory agency overseeing financial markets, governs power instead of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which regulates drugs and narcotics. The quote implies that power, especially in the realm of business and finance, can be just as intoxicating and potentially harmful as narcotics, and therefore needs to be monitored and controlled.

To believe in something not yet proved and to underwrite it

To believe in something not yet proved and to underwrite it with our lives: it is the only way we can leave the future open.
