“Praxeologically, the very fact of exchange and the division of labor implies that it must be more productive for all concerned than isolated, autistic labor.” – Murray Rothbard

“One may as well consider these two facts as one and the same fact, namely, the manifoldness of nature which makes the universe a complex of infinite varieties. If the earth’s surface were such that the physical conditions of production were the same at every point and if one man were … equal to all other men … division of labor would not offer any advantages for acting man.” – Ludwig von Mises
