More quotes by Angela Merkel
We need trust among allies and partners. Such trust now has to be built anew.
Angela Merkel
In the German football team players from different clubs need to get on with each other both on and off the pitch. In the grand coalition Christian Democrats and Social Democrats sit in the same boat and need to pull in the same direction.
Angela Merkel
Don't get bitter and twisted and nasty by life. You may have been wronged or cheated on two wrongs never make a right. Instead learn your mistakes and learn your lessons. Remain strong with your head held high.
Angela Merkel
Ordinary people regard a man of a certain force and flexibility of character as they do a lion they look at him with a sort of wonder, perhaps they admire him but they will on no account house with him.
Angela Merkel
Trying to keep a society together, trying to keep the older and the younger people together, trying to keep those who live in rural areas together with those who live in cities is one of the most important and most noble tasks of politicians these days.
Angela Merkel
An institution like Guantanamo in its present form cannot and must not exist in the long term. We must find different ways of dealing with prisoners. As far as I'm concerned there's no question about that.
Angela Merkel
The substance of the constitution is preserved. That is a fact.
Angela Merkel
I fortunately know very many people, and there are many, many more that I don't know and many politicians who stand up for the same values of democracy of liberal societies, of open societies of respect for the dignity of man.
Angela Merkel
Above all it is important to point out that we can only maintain our prosperity in Europe if we belong to the most innovative regions in the world.
Angela Merkel
It certainly is dangerous that there are only a few clubs left in Europe that can afford to pay millions. At the end of the day however, the spectators decide the rates of pay - by watching the games and consuming the goods and services advertised on sports TV programmes.
Angela Merkel
As politicians we have to react to the fact that many people do not feel that they can relate to the EU.
Angela Merkel
I believe that we will move forward a little tomorrow but I have my doubts that we will achieve a result.
Angela Merkel
I think we live in a period of profound transformation. Very similar to when we had a transition from agricultural societies to industrial societies.
Angela Merkel
On Russia, I can only repeat what the president [Barack Obama] said. This is all about respecting certain principles, and I'm saying this from a European vantage point, from a European, from a German vantage point, sorry, the fact that for over 70 years we have been able to enjoy peace.
Angela Merkel
I will not let anyone tell me we must spend more money. This crisis did not come about because we issued too little money but because we created economic growth with too much money and it was not sustainable growth.
Angela Merkel
I am not an expert in this field but I do try to keep up to date with the Bundesliga. And I do follow World Cups and European Championships more closely.
Angela Merkel
Always be more than you appear and never appear to be more than you are.
Angela Merkel
It seems to me that the fact that I am a woman is a bigger issue than the fact that I'm from the East. For me it isn't really important. I've only ever known myself as a woman.
Angela Merkel
The full veil is not appropriate for Germans, and should be banned wherever legally possible.
Angela Merkel
Everyone wants a more simple tax system. But if this means that certain tax breaks have to be cut, people are no longer so enthusiastic.
Angela Merkel
