If you don't have some bad loans you are not in business. — Paul Volcker
The whole financial structure of Wall Street seems to rise or fall on the mere fact that the Federal Reserve Bank raises or lowers the amount of interest.

But you let Wall Street have a nightmare and the whole country has to help to get them back into bed again. — Will Rogers

If you're not mechanically in the community with people from the community trying to talk about our party, talk about school choice, talk about SBA loans for business owners - if someone's not there, nothing is going to change.

The IMF insisted that both Russia and Brazil maintain their currency at over-valued levels. Who are you protecting when you try to maintain that exchange rate by having high interest rates?

The small businesses that did not gamble [and no longer can afford loans], the workers who are going to be put out of jobs. — Joseph Stiglitz

The panda cam, paying small businesses their loans - these are all things that shut down. — Sylvia Mathews Burwell

By the aristocracy of finance must here be understood not merely the great loan promoters and speculators in public funds, in regard to whom it is immediately obvious that their interests coincide with the interests of the state power.

Only morons start a business on a loan? — Mark Cuban

I believe the best way to help our small businesses is not only through small-business loans, which we have increased since I've been the president of the United States, but to unbundle government contracts so people have a chance to be able to bid and receive a contract to help get their business going. — George W. Bush
But we can't alibi all our ills by just knocking the old banker. First he loaned the money, then the people all at once wanted it back, and he didn't have it. Now he's got it again, and is afraid to loan it, so the poor devil don't know what to do. — Will Rogers
