I don't want to interpret the pope's words, especially as I am one of those horrible people who fell away from the Roman church after Martin Luther.

More quotes by Wolfgang Schauble
You can lead a happy life if you recognize that it's limited and completely unpredictable from one moment to the next.
Wolfgang Schauble
It has been clear for some time now that we have to do more for domestic and external security. I am prepared for that.
Wolfgang Schauble
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
Reliability is the precondition for trust.
Wolfgang Schauble
I want to see religious instruction and sermons held in German in the mosques. The ideal, in my view, would be for imams to be trained in Germany and to speak our language, just as the Roman Catholic Church now holds mass in German and gave up Latin long ago.
Wolfgang Schauble
Our balanced budget has an important psychological function. It is a signal that we can't continue to constantly take on debt.
Wolfgang Schauble
We need more personnel within our security agencies.
Wolfgang Schauble
I suggested that countries with tighter finances think about such a [fuel] tax. We don't have the time at the moment for months of discussion.
Wolfgang Schauble
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
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
Many things can happen very quickly in times of crisis.
Wolfgang Schauble
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
I can't think of many other laws we might need. For now, though, we'll be talking to German Muslims over issues of coexistence.
Wolfgang Schauble
During the centuries-long process of Reformation and Enlightenment, Christian churches had to accept some things they didn't like. Islam will have to do the same otherwise it isn't part of Europe.
Wolfgang Schauble
When it comes to training imams, one needs a partner. But if we want the mosques to preach peaceful coexistence, we will have to do something about it. One goal of the conference is to find a partner for the training of imams and teachers of Islam in schools.
Wolfgang Schauble
We are facing a whole collection of crisis-like developments that we have to watch closely. But we also have to be careful what we point to as crisis indicators.
Wolfgang Schauble
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
If we want to make Europe stronger, then each country first has to ensure that it becomes stronger itself. This applies to Italy and France, and it applies to Germany as well. Subsequently, we in Europe need to discuss how we can improve the community. That is the correct order.
Wolfgang Schauble
If there are possibilities for strengthening investments, they will not fail because of us. Emmanuel Macron is right when he says that we need to do more and talk less.
Wolfgang Schauble
I'm a firm believer in the monetary union.
Wolfgang Schauble
