Donella Meadows Zitate

We have come to expect campaigns to be mean and stupid and politicians to be unresponsive, self-seeking and for sale to the highest bidder. We make jokes about our vice president, and all we ask of a president is that he be likeable. We seem to have given up on the Pentagon's corrupt use of our tax dollars.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Wir erwarten, dass Kampagnen gemein und dumm sind und dass Politiker nicht ansprechend, selbstsüchtig sind und an den Meistbietenden verkauft werden. Wir machen Witze über unseren Vizepräsidenten und alles, was wir von einem Präsidenten verlangen, ist, dass er sympathisch ist. Wir scheinen die korrupte Verwendung unserer Steuergelder durch das Pentagon aufgegeben zu haben.

And so we were asleep there in San Diego. And our pilot called us. And his brother was on one of the other planes. And when he was leaving the airport, he saw in his rear view mirror that there was an explosion.

Even a lame-duck president can be affected by a clear midterm message if he wants to see his vice president elected and preserve his historical legacy.

Well, Well, Well, its certainly a compelling provocative exciting delicious to think about idea, smart people say the universe is so big there must be something statistically it could be likely there could be something happening on some other world.

Anyone who thinks that the vice-president can take a position independent of the president of his administration simply has no knowledge of politics or government. You are his choice in a political marriage, and he expects your absolute loyalty.

If people choose to live their life in a way that does not confront the more troubling aspects of their experience, that's fine, if it works for them. But it will probably make them uncomfortable if they come up against somebody like me. So they just shouldn't! They shouldn't read my work!
