More quotes by Angela Merkel
I want to see everyone contribute to the overall costs of the system, and with their entire earnings. I'm convinced that an objective discussion will reveal that the differences between the parties, which have been greatly exaggerated in some quarters, aren't that significant after all.
Angela Merkel
We have shared those values, we continue to share those values and obviously, we will continue to cooperate with the new administration [of the U.S].
Angela Merkel
And I think that a woman as chancellor can also serve as a good example,.
Angela Merkel
Only our own strength, a strong conservative party, can prevent Red-Red-Green from taking power at the federal level in 2017.
Angela Merkel
Always be more than you appear and never appear to be more than you are.
Angela Merkel
The plurality of German campaign formats, including the televised debates, reflect that we in Germany don't directly vote for a person like in the United States or in France, but for parties. We have a different system.
Angela Merkel
I have great respect for press freedoms. At the same time, however, a politician also has the freedom to decide whether he or she will accept an invitation to appear on a show or not.
Angela Merkel
We can't constantly explain to our voters that taxpayers have to be on the hook for certain risks, rather than those who make a lot of money taking those risks.

I think we can say our energy system will be the most efficient and environmentally friendly in the world.
Angela Merkel
I am always on duty, even when I am at party events or on vacation. I don't complain about it, on the contrary. Time management for candidates without government functions is different than it is for me. No matter where I am, I always have to have my duties as chancellor in mind.
Angela Merkel
There is anything but an assurance of success, I have to be very clear about that.
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
If it's in the German interest to have good trans-Atlantic relations, well, the task is also to look ahead, but our personal - that we have freedom of movement in the whole of Germany so if we want to see each other, well, I'm game.
Angela Merkel
I never underestimated myself. And I never saw anything wrong with ambition.
Angela Merkel
The role of the opposition leader differs from that of the chancellor. If this government is to be successful, I have to take the emotional state of all partners into account. Besides, the Social Democrats didn't exactly present me with the motto Let us dare to have more freedom on a silver platter.
Angela Merkel
The markets want to force us to do certain things. That we won't do. Politicians have to make sure that we're unassailable, that we can make policy for the people.
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
There's another point that I wanted to mention here, particularly the engagement and commitment to Africa. For us Europeans, Africa as a neighboring continent is of prime importance. The development of African countries is in our very own vested interest.
Angela Merkel
Neither the chains of dictatorship nor the fetters of oppression can keep down the forces of freedom for long.
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.
