Donella Meadows Zitate

The actions of my government are not bearable. They devastate our natural resources and deprive our people. The politicians speak piously while practicing greed and divisiveness. They care nothing for the nation. I want to do more than withdraw my support. I want to tar and feather them.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Die Handlungen meiner Regierung sind nicht erträglich. Sie zerstören unsere natürlichen Ressourcen und berauben unser Volk. Die Politiker sprechen fromm, während sie Gier und Spaltung üben. Sie kümmern sich nicht um die Nation. Ich möchte mehr als meine Unterstützung zurückziehen. Ich möchte sie tarnen und mit Federn versehen.

We do nothing for children between the ages of zero and five. And we seem to be quite happy to have children growing up in not just poverty, which wouldn't be so bad, but isolation, lack of people around them, lack of support, lack of ability to go out and play in the dirt.
