President: “Mr. Gardener, do you agree with Ben, or do you think we can stimulate growth through temporary incentives?”
Chance the Gardener: “As long as the roots are not severed, all is well. And all will be well in the garden.”
President: “In the garden.”
Chance the Gardener: “Yes, in the garden, growth has its seasons. First comes spring and summer, but then we have fall and winter. And then we get spring and summer again.”
President: “Spring and summer.”
Chance the Gardener: Yes.
President: “Then fall and winter.”
Chance the Gardener: “Yes”.

Chance the Gardener: Yes! There will be growth in the spring!”
Benjamin Rand (nee Bernanke): “Hmm!”
Chance the Gardener: “Hmm!”
President: “Hmm. Well, Mr. Gardener, I must admit that is one of the most refreshing and optimistic statements I’ve heard in a very, very long time. I admire your good, solid sense. That’s precisely what we lack on Capitol Hill.”
