Quotes – Bankers

“The powers of financial capitalism had a far-reaching aim – nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences. The apex of the system was to be the Bank for International Settlements [BIS] in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world’s central banks which were themselves private corporations … Each central bank sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world.”
– Carroll Quigley in his book Tragedy and Hope

“Communism and socialism are themselves forms of monopoly. The only difference is that in this case, the monopoly is operated by the government. But what if an international banker, through loans to the state, manipulation of a central bank, campaign contributions, or bribes, is able to achieve dominion over a government? In that case, he would find socialism welcome, for it would serve him as an instrument to control society.”
– James Perloff in his book The Shadows of Power: The Council on Foreign Relations and the American Decline

“The Depression [1929] was not accidental. It was a carefully contrived occurrence. The international bankers sought to bring about a condition of despair here [United States] so that they might emerge as rulers of us all.”
– Louis T. McFadden, Chairman of the U.S. House of Representatives’ Banking and Currency Committee, 1932

“I care not what puppet is placed on the throne of England to rule the Empire. The man who controls Britain’s money supply controls the British Empire and I control the British money supply.”
– Nathan Mayer Rothschild

“Either the application for the renewal of the charter [of the Bank of the United States] is granted or the United States will find itself involved in a most disastrous war.
… Teach these impudent Americans a lesson. Bring them back to colonial status.”
– Nathan Rothschild, who controlled the Bank of England, said this after the U.S. government under President Andrew Jackson refused to renew the charter of the privately owned and controlled Bank of the United States.

“We shall have World Government, whether or not we like it. The only question is whether World Government will be achieved by conquest or consent.”
– international banker James Warburg testifying before the U.S. Senate Feb. 7, 1950

“John D. Rockefeller J. P. Morgan, and other kingpins of the Money Trust were powerful monopolists. A monopolist seeks to eliminate competition. In fact, Rockefeller once said: “Competition is a sin.” These men were not free enterprise advocates.”
– James Perloff in his book The Shadows of Power

“During the past two centuries when the peoples of the world were gradually winning their political freedom from the dynastic monarchies, the major banking families of Europe and America were actually reversing the trend by setting up new dynasties of political control through the formation of international financial combines. These banking dynasties had learned that all governments must have sources of revenue from which to borrow in times of emergency. They had also learned that by providing such funds from their own private resources, they could make both kings and democratic leaders tremendously subservient to their will.”
– Carroll Quigley in Tragedy and Hope

“Psychopaths litter history with genocides and the destruction of entire nations and empires. Historical examples include such monsters as Stalin, Pol Pot, Ivan the Terrible, and Caligula. While there are many that make it to the pinnacle of the political stage there are also such historical figures as J.P. Morgan, Randolph Hearst, and Mayer Rothschild, professional psychopaths that reach the pinnacle of the financial stage where they cause no less misery and destruction as their political counterparts.”
– Stefan H. Verstappen
