David Autor Zitate

Work is what structures adults' lives: it gives us purpose, focus, a set of responsibilities, and an identity. So when people are not participating in the labour market, all sorts of other things often start to go wrong.

Arbeit ist das, was das Leben von Erwachsenen strukturiert: Sie gibt uns Zweck, Fokus, Verantwortlichkeiten und Identität. Wenn Menschen also nicht am Arbeitsmarkt teilnehmen, beginnen alle möglichen anderen Dinge oft schief zu gehen.

I think when you get into your 30s, you start to realize all of the patterns you have in your life and all of the stuff that you're avoiding. It's a terribly unsung period in people's lives. I can't think about many artists who have sung about it, because it's so not sexy.

The coming and going of the seasons give us more than the springtimes, summers, autumns, and winters of our lives. It reflects the coming and going of the circumstances of our lives like the glassy surface of a pond that shows our faces radiant with joy or contorted with pain.

I don't think they like the idea that the people who are buying the record get to choose what goes out, because it's their job. The fans even pre-ordered stock to make sure that I had some sort of presence.

John Otway

Tony Gwynn

I hate to sound sort of diffident about it but it strikes me that a lot of people on the right have got active lives and are doing other things.
