“At every crossway on the path that leads to the future, each progressive spirit is opposed by a thousand men appointed to guard the past. Let us have no fear that the fair towers of former days be sufficiently defended. The least that the most timid among us can do is not to add to the immense dead weight that nature drags along.” MenPastSpiritCan DoPathThousandFairsWeightAddFormerPersistenceProgressiveDragImmenseTowersNo FearHave No Fear Author:Maurice Maeterlinck
“In England everything is liberalised. Within certain boundaries and rules everybody can do what he likes. Maybe London's society has a different tempo, a different dynamic. London is fast, productive, creative but it is not England. If you want to transfer that to football, you could say: in the four big English clubs and maybe in the one or two behind them there is a top level. Everything that comes after that rather mirrors English society. It's honest, fair and hard, sometimes also fast, but not always so perfect.” IfsWantTwoDifferentSometimesHardBigsCertainCan DoPerfectLevelsBehindsCreativeFourHonestFootballFairsEnglandMirrorsClubsLondonBoundariesLikesManagersSoccerProductiveChairmanTransfersTempoEnglish Society Author:Jens Lehmann
“Whatever each man can separately do, without trespassing upon others, he has a right to do for himself; and he has a right to a fair portion of all which society, with all it combinations of skill and force, can do in his favor. In this partnership all men have equal rights; but not to equal things.” MenWisdomPoliticsForceCan DoEconomyRightsSkillsEqualFairsFavorsCombinationLiberalismPortionsPartnershipEqual RightsTrespassing Book:Delphi Complete Works of Edmund Burke (Illustrated) Source: Delphi Complete Works of Edmund Burke (Illustrated)
