What is this Economist quotes collection about?

Why would someone search for quotes about economists?
Readers writing about economics, policy, or even just poking fun at the profession often want quotes that capture both the respect and the skepticism people have toward economists.
Is there a quote comparing economics to ecology?
Yes, one quote frames a non-growing economy as unthinkable to an economist while a continually growing one is just as unthinkable to an ecologist, a sharp way of framing the growth debate.
Does this collection include anything about reading habits or media?
It does — one quote mentions reading Time, Newsweek, and The Economist, tying the topic to how people actually stay informed.
