Donella Meadows Zitate

No one wants growth, constant expansion, physical swelling. Growth is not a human value; it's a means to the ends of sufficiency and security. Once we have enough, no one wants more, unless it is sold to us as a cheap substitute for something else, something non-material.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Niemand will Wachstum, ständige Expansion, körperliche Schwellung. Wachstum ist kein menschlicher Wert. Es ist ein Mittel zum Zweck von Suffizienz und Sicherheit. Sobald wir genug haben, will niemand mehr, es sei denn, es wird uns als billiger Ersatz für etwas anderes, etwas Unmaterielles verkauft.

I am pretty expressive with my emotions. I don't think something and say something else. I don't know if it's something I should be proud of or to watch out for. Maybe I am not politically correct. I don't know if that's a crime.
