From a letter written in 1953 (From FEE and Liberty Fund archives): “I have never heard Mr. Fisher from the lecture platform, but
I have had long talks with him both in New York and in London on economic
subjects, and I have read a number of his articles and pamphlets. He not only
has an extremely attractive personality and speaking voice, which are very
great assets on a lecture platform, but he has the additional advantage of
knowing a great deal about his subject and of being able to talk interestingly
about it. He is devoted to the principle of individual freedom; he knows what
threatens it, and I am sure audiences would be as impressed as I have been by
his sincerity and integrity.” Antony Fisher and think tank leaders: In the attachment you will find a letter from 1987 from Bernardo M. "Bernie" Villegas to Antony Fisher telling him about his CRC think tank in the Philippines, praising the quick response of John Greenwood and Rene Scull (Atlas trustee), and asking to receive a copy of Hernando de Soto's "The Other Path" and be invited to the first workshop in the US that I helped organize for Atlas in Indianapolis. Antony nominated Villegas to attend MPS. |
