Favorite Wolfgang Schauble Quotes

1. "I've been a politician long enough to know that every year will find us living in a situation that one couldn't have imagined a year previously. Sometimes it's better than we imagined, sometimes it's not as good." ~ Wolfgang Schauble
2. "If we were to have a presidential election in Europe it would be an event that would spark a huge interest in people from Lisbon to Helsinki, just like national elections. And it would create a completely different political setting in Europe." ~ Wolfgang Schauble
3. "In the long term, Germany didn't need a finance minister who was absent during important negotiations in the European Council. But the chancellor strongly encouraged me to stay. And everything did work out for the best in the end." ~ Wolfgang Schauble
4. "It is true that no member state can be required to make payments to others. But if countries want to offer voluntary assistance, as in the Greek case, this isn't only allowed, but it's also in Germany's interest. We all benefit by ensuring the stability of the euro zone." ~ Wolfgang Schauble
5. "The German export successes are not the result of some sort of currency manipulation, but of the increased competitiveness of companies. The American growth model, on the other hand, is in a deep crisis." ~ Wolfgang Schauble
6. "Crisis and pressure help foster change - that's why I'm not so pessimistic towards crises." ~ Wolfgang Schauble
7. "Europe should speak more effectively and clearly with one voice in the world." ~ Wolfgang Schauble
8. "I would wish for more British involvement in Europe, not less." ~ Wolfgang Schauble
9. "If you are prepared to run for public office, you also have to be willing to accept a debate about you." ~ Wolfgang Schauble
10. "Mr. Geithner is an excellent minister. We have a good personal relationship." ~ Wolfgang Schauble
11. "My private financial situation is such that I don't need to worry about my investments. I don't have much to invest." ~ Wolfgang Schauble
12. "Politics means competition, especially in senior positions. If you don't know that, you're not especially suited to politics." ~ Wolfgang Schauble
13. "The presidency of the Euro group is an interesting and important task." ~ Wolfgang Schauble
14. "We cannot allow the bankruptcy of a euro member state like Greece to turn into a second Lehman Brothers." ~ Wolfgang Schauble
15. "As a wheelchair user, you can't move about freely. That's the only thing that bothers me a little. When I'm in the Euro Group in Brussels, colleagues who want to talk to me have to come to me. But I hope they know that this has nothing to do with arrogance." ~ Wolfgang Schauble
16. "I would caution against fueling cheap populism. First of all, every German who has spent a vacation in Greece knows that the standard of living there isn't higher than it is in Germany. Second, Greece is paying a high price for European assistance." ~ Wolfgang Schauble
17. "As for the role of France and Germany: French politics is often more self-confident then German politics due to the catastrophe in the first half of the last century. If Berlin and Paris don't agree, then it is difficult to make progress in Europe." ~ Wolfgang Schauble
18. "Germany has always stood for an E.U. of the 27 countries. But in light of Britain's continued resistance to further integration steps, as we saw with the fiscal pact, there are limits to my optimism in this regard. It's quite possible that we will have to create the new institutions for the euro zone first." ~ Wolfgang Schauble
19. "Greece's debts are all denominated in euros, but it isn't clear who holds how much of those debts. For that reason, the consequences of a national bankruptcy would be incalculable. Greece is just as systemically important as a major bank." ~ Wolfgang Schauble

Today's Quote

The sound of carriage wheels and horses was faint,seeming more distant than they actually were. Drops of water clung to the wool of my dress and my cloak, the men dragging in the grass. We were in a soft cocoon.It might have been romantic.If it wasn't for all the dead bodies.And the faint scratch of a footstep."
