Top 5 The Economist Quotes (2025 Update)

1. “Clarity of writing usually follows clarity of thought. So think what you want to say, then say it as simply as possible.”

— The Economist

2. “But that is the strange thing about the future. Nothing ages faster than yesterday’s dreams of tomorrow.”

— The Economist

3. “Nobody needs to be described as silly: let your analysis show that he is.”

— The Economist

4. “A lot of the people who read a bestselling novel, for example, do not read much other fiction. By contrast, the audience for an obscure novel is largely composed of people who read a lot. That means the least popular books are judged by people who have the highest standards, while the most popular are judged by people who literally do not know any better. An American who read just one book this year was disproportionately likely to have read ‘The Lost Symbol’, by Dan Brown. He almost certainly liked it.”

— The Economist

5. “Don’t be too didactic. Your writing shouldn’t teach someone, your story should.”

— The Economist
