“The institution that most changes our lives we least understand or, more correctly, seek most elaborately to misunderstand. That is the modern corporation. Week by week, month by month, year by year, it exercises a greater influence on our livelihood and the way we live than unions, universities, politicians and government.” — John Kenneth Galbraith, The Age of Uncertainty (Houghton Mifflin Company, 1977).
