Quote by Mehmet Murat Ildan

“For a country to be a colourful country, it must have different people! The way to have different people is to have a society of independent-minded individuals who think differently; otherwise, it would appear as a monotonous mob of people who are extremely colourless, boring, and look alike like a log.”

“Simon Kuznets warnte bereits vor achtzig Jahren: "Aus einer Messung des Nationaleinkommens kann kaum auf das Wohlergehen eines Landes geschlossen werden. (...)

Die Wachstumsziele, die wir uns stecken, sollten die Frage beantworten, von welchem Wachstum wir mehr wollen und wozu.”
