Quote of the Day (Rowan Williams, on Theologians and Economists)

“You say theologians don’t talk about the real world. But sometimes in recent years, it’s the economists that don’t talk about the real world.”—Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams, at “Building an Ethical Economy,” a three-day conference held at New York’s Trinity Church, pointing to “more and more recondite, metaphysical, unreal forms of wealth,” quoted in Paul Vitello, “Archbishop of Canterbury Challenges Wall Street on Its Home Turf,” The New York Times, January 30, 2010
