Cicero quotes

I have been increasingly moved to wonder whether my job is a job or a racket, whether economists, and particularly economic theorists, may not be in the position that Cicero, citing Cato, ascribed to the augurs of Romeöthat they should cover their faces or burst into laughter when they met on the street.

-Knight, Frank Hyneman
  Collected in Essays on theHistory and Method of Economics (1956).
