“War is the national industry of Prussia.”
Comte de Mirabeau
“There seem to be but three ways for a nation to acquire wealth. The first is by war, as the Romans did, in plundering their conquered neighbors. This is robbery. The second by commerce, which is generally cheating. The third by agriculture, the only honest way, wherein man receives a real increase of the seed thrown into the ground, in a kind of continual miracle, wrought by the hand of God in his favor, as a reward for his innocent life and his virtuous industry.”
Benjamin Franklin

“Killing is practically a Filipino national pastime but on Mindanao it's an industry.”
Leonard Mosley
“We have to take steps to prevent lawsuits from bankrupting the national firearms industry and denying all Americans their fundamental right to bear arms,”
Chris Cannon
“Smuggling was not just a cottage industry, but a national industry.”
Jim Sinclair
“Arts are economic development. That's a key component across the nation. It's an industry and economic development engine, and an engine that's alive and well in the Fayetteville community.”
