Wisdom, Let Us Attend: In The Long Run

John Maynard Keynes (5 June 1883 – 21 April 1946), regarded the most influential economist of the 20th century, is widely quoted as saying, "In the long run, we all are dead." That gloomy sentiment does not summarize the only reasonable assessment of the human condition.
