David Mamet Zitate

One person may need (or want) more leisure, another more work; one more adventure, another more security, and so on. It is this diversity that makes a country, indeed a state, a city, a church, or a family, healthy. 'One-size-fits-all,' and that size determined by the State has a name, and that name is 'slavery.'

Deutsche Übersetzung

Eine Person braucht (oder möchte) mehr Freizeit, eine andere mehr Arbeit; ein weiteres Abenteuer, ein anderes mehr Sicherheit und so weiter. Diese Vielfalt macht ein Land, einen Staat, eine Stadt, eine Kirche oder eine Familie gesund. "One-size-fits-all" und diese vom Staat bestimmte Größe hat einen Namen, und dieser Name ist "Sklaverei".

If my colleagues stop eating donuts and are more active, it saves me money on next year's insurance premium, and I get to work with people who have more energy and creativity each day.
