Susan George quotes
" As the rich consume more and more, they are clearly not going to want to downgrade their own status. "

Susan George
" Cost recovery is the polite way of saying, make families pay to educate their children. "

Susan George
" Debt is such a powerful tool, it is such a useful tool, it's much better than colonialism ever was because you can keep control without having an army, without having a whole administration. "

Susan George
" Everything has to be done to build some sort of international democracy. We've seen only the tiniest beginnings of that. "

Susan George
" Having enough to eat, being able to educate your children, have reasonably stable employment, and being able to live in a society which isn't collapsing around you-all of these things have been generally eroded. "

Susan George
" How do we get democracy at the international level? That's our problem. and it's essentially the same problem people faced in the 18th Century when they tried to get democracy nationally. Now we need it internationally. "

Susan George
" I am a globalist, I am an internationalist, but this kind of globalisation is about exclusion, it's not about all holding hands and marching towards the promised land. "

Susan George
" I have never subscribed to authoritarianism, and I think if the 21st century is going to be authoritarian then we're all done for. "

Susan George
" I think the market is always going to be around. The goal is not to say, let's get rid of the market, because the market does render a huge number of services, and I don't want to have a fight about the price of something every time I buy a book or a bottle of water. "

Susan George
" I think we can perfectly well continue to live with the marketplace, and in any future society we're going to have production. "

Susan George
" I used to work a lot on food issues and every time somebody predicted that production would be inadequate they got egg on their face a year or two later. "

Susan George
" I was recently looking at what they can actually do to reduce consumption of petrol. It would be quite possible to build automobiles out of carbon fibre that would be just as strong, weigh 10 times less and consume 10 times less petrol. "

Susan George
" I'm a radical reformist, because between where we are and where I want to go there's a great deal of work, and I won't see the end of this. "

Susan George
" I'm not there talking about Mars and Venus, I'm talking about something relatively complicated when I go out and give speeches. "

Susan George
" If it were only the politics, I would feel quite secure that at my age I can go off happily. I think that the pendulum is beginning to swing back the other way. "
