Konzession / Concession Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über Konzession / Concession:

Each concession we make is accompanied by an inner diminution of which we are not immediately conscious. Emil Cioran

Each concession we make is accompanied by an inner diminution of which we are not immediately conscious.

For inspiration, we still demand the rhetorical high notes. Clinton has hit them before, in her speech in Beijing as first lady when she said, 'Women's rights are human rights,' and in her 2008 concession speech, when she talked about the '18 million cracks' in the glass ceiling.
