Austerity causes constipation excess, diarrhea.
Mason Cooley

I don't know if Britain ever really achieved that much glamour. We had post-war austerity rather than post-war prosperity, and our cultural products of the time include some pretty dour kitchen-sink dramas of the A Kind of Loving variety. (This kind of film seems disillusioned with the sixties before they've even really begun.)
Quentin S. Crisp
Image
When malice has reason on its side, it looks forth bravely, and displays that reason in all its luster. When austerity and self-denial have not realized true happiness, and the soul returns to the dictates of nature, the reaction is fearfully extravagant.
Blaise Pascal
Image
Know that the eradication of the identification with the body is charity, spiritual austerity and ritual sacrifice it is virtue, divine union and devotion it is heaven, wealth, peace and truth it is grace it is the state of divine silence it is the deathless death it is jnana, renunciation, final liberation and bliss.

The Devil doesn't fear austerity but holy obedience.
Saint Francis de Sales

In the U.S. the powerful critics of austerity such as Paul Krugman and Robert Reich rightly identify the decline of 'labor' as a problem, and renewing trade unionism part of the solution. Our opportunity is to make the same case in the UK.
Frances O'Grady

Crackdown, the video, interpreted and reflected a sense of authority and austerity and a sense of slight, impending doom.
Stephen Mallinder
Image
I'm always trying to get to a danger point in color, where color either becomes too sweet or it becomes too harsh, it becomes too noisy or too quiet, and at that point I still want the picture to be strong, forceful, and the carrier of everything that a painting has to have: contrast, drama, austerity.
Wolf Kahn
Image
It is a campaign not for abundance but for austerity. It is a campaign not for more freedom but for less. Strangest of all, it is a campaign not just against other people, but against ourselves.
George Monbiot
Image
The fact is that purification and austerity are even more necessary for the appreciation of life and laughter than for anything else. To let no bird fly past unnoticed, to spell the stones and weeds, to have the mind a storehouse of sunset, requires a discipline in pleasure and an education in gratitude.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
Image
We are not jumping on the austerity bandwagon. A healthy economy is by far the most important thing for Social Democrats.
Helle Thorning-Schmidt
Image
Americans have always been able to handle austerity and even adversity. Prosperity is what is doing us in.
James Reston, Jr.
Image
Labour has the responsibility to give a lead where the government will not. We need to bring people together, hold the government to account, oppose austerity and set out a path to exit that will protect jobs and incomes.
Jeremy Corbyn
Image
On the elusive gift of blending austerity of craft with elasticity of allure.
Joyce Carol Oates
Image
Extreme concupiscence may be found under extreme austerity.
Margaret of Valois
Image
We used to be one of the richest countries in the world, but we are now on a path towards under-development. This austerity that has been imposed on the people doesn't work. The people will not allow themselves to be throttled without revolting.
Marine Le Pen
Image
Greece and the Greek people have recently had to deal with the harshest consequences of the global and European economic crisis. As an economy and as a society, we have had to experience a program of disastrous austerity which made the problems more acute instead of resolving them.
Alexis Tsipras
Image
HUMORIST, n. A plague that would have softened down the hoar austerity of Pharaoh's heart and persuaded him to dismiss Israel with his best wishes, cat-quick.
Ambrose Bierce
Image
It's true that mostly in the last years, from the moment when Portugal was subjected to this policy of austerity, imposed by Europe, that I think many Portuguese became a little bit more left-leaning, and so did I too, I could not not care about the situation. I had to deal with it in some way.
Miguel Gomes
Image
The politics of austerity, of higher taxes, decided by governments, have lengthened the economic crisis.
Arnaud Montebourg
Image
Sibelius justified the austerity of his old age by saying that while other composers were engaged in manufacturing cocktails, he offered the public pure cold water.
