Ddr Quotes

El lema de mis padres era: no hay almohada más blanda que la conciencia tranquila

Ci abituiamo di nuovo a dormire tranquilli. Viviamo senza risparmiarci, come ce ne fosse anche troppa di questa strana sostanza ch'è la vita, come se non dovesse avere mai fine.

DDR Watchtower This was one of many such towers built in 1966 for panoramic surveillance and shooting (note the rifle windows, allowing shots to be fired in 360 degrees).

Ich lernte viel an diesem Fall. Ich lernte, daß keine Lüge zu plump ist, als daß die Leute sie nicht glauben würden, wenn sie ihrem geheimen Wunsch, sie zu glauben, entgegenkommt.

A los hombres siempre hay que hacerles teatro, si no los asustas. Todavía no he conocido a ninguno que quisiera averiguar cómo soy realmente y por qué soy así. Todos querían algo concreto de mí.

The ethos of East Berlin punk infused the city with a radical egalitarianism and a DIY approach to maintaining independence-to conjuring up the world you want to live in regardless of the situation or surroundings.

Quella fresca domenica d’aprile in cui lei arrivò, Manfred mostrò alla sua futura moglie l’abitazione dei suoi genitori. - La bara della mia vita: suddivisa in bara-soggiorno, bara-sala da pranzo, bara-camera da letto e bara-cucina. - Perché? - chiese Rita. Per conto suo, era intimidita da quella strada fuori mano e signorile, da quella villa antica, da quelle stanze pesanti e buie. - Perché qui non è mai accaduto nulla di vivo, - disse lui. - A memoria mia, mai.

Ich hoffte inständig, daß es sich bei Modern Talking um eine Eintagsfliege handeln würde. In Anbetracht der schlechten Songs gab es da durchaus Hoffnung. Aber auch die nächsten Singles dieser beiden Typen stürmten die Charts, und ich verstand die Welt nicht mehr. Warum kauften im Westen so viele Leute die Musik von Thomas und Dieter? Die hatten doch eine riesige Auswahl an superguten Platten in den Geschäften. Warum immer wieder Modern Talking? Der Albtraum ging weiter. Selbst im DDR-Radio lief einige Zeit später "Cherry, Cherry Lady". Die Mauer, die uns vor den schädlichen Einflüssen des Westens beschützen sollte, hatte schon damals total versagt.

What followed was the largest and most rapid privatisation ever seen in any country in the world (except perhaps in the Soviet Union under Yeltsin). Never in the history of civilisation has a state's total assets and infrastructure been disposed of so rapidly and in such a criminal fashion. Its machinations make Al Capone look like a paragon of capitalist virtue.

Otra que me parece muy bonita: estábamos en Rumanía, Karin y yo, y haciendo autostop conocimos a dos chicos que eran del Cáucaso. Pasamos la noche juntos, hicimos una hoguera, los chicos tuvieron que currar un montón, y nosotras nos encargamos de lo bonito, de la música y de leer en voz alta y así. Mucho, mucho, mucho tiempo. En casa también era así, papá hacía lo bonito, él era el polo tranquilo, como suelen serlo los hombres, y mamá la que se ocupaba de todo. A la mañana siguiente los chicos se levantaron pronto, recogieron el maíz, lo cocieron, le pusieron hojas encima para que se mantuviera caliente. De algún modo, no sé, teníamos ganas de acostarnos con ellos, pero nadie lo echó de menos, fue realmente bonito. Si te acuestas con alguien y no lo conoces bien, tiene que ser muy buena gente. Disfrutar la belleza del cuerpo, ay, eso es precioso. [Bárbara, 23 años, grafista, soltera]

In hindsight, it's seen as inevitable that the two Germany's would reunite. But none of the people who had laid the groundwork for the fall-those who had started the tremors and endured the security forces' brutality-envisioned a unified Germany. Those people had sacrificed their places in society for the chance to form a new one, something different and distinct, an independent East Germany built form scratch. The hadn't looked to the West for inspiration before, and none of them looked to the West for salvation now that the border was open.

What in essence happened under the Treuhand was a complete transfer without compensation of property and assets accumulated over forty years through hard work and effort by GDR citizens, as well as the land they owned (which in the GDR had no monetary value as such) to, in the main, West German owners. This transfer of a country's assets — unprecedented anywhere in the world during peacetime — amounted to billions of Euros: a robbing of ordinary people for the enrichment of a few. Of those companies and individuals who bought GDR property, 80 per cent were West Germans, only 10 per cent were from other countries, and a mere 5 per cent went to GDR citizens.

Nun riskierten wir, etwas aufs Maul zu bekommen von den zahlreichen Faschos in ihren Begrüßungsgeld-Bomberjacken und von besoffenen Helmut-Kohl-Fans mit den "Allianz für Deutschland"-Plastebeuteln. Viele von ihnen riefen im Sprechchor "Wie sind stolz, Deutsche zu sein". Wir fragten uns, worauf sie denn eigentlich stolz wären. Auf die Alpen oder den Thüringer Wald? Die hatten die Natur geschaffen. Auf Goethe oder Schiller? Ja haben die Schreihälse an deren Werken etwa mitgeschrieben? Daß sie in einem deutschen Land geboren wurden, war doch purer Zufall, dafür hatten sie doch überhaupt nichts getan. Eigentlich kann man doch nur auf etwas stolz sein, das man selber geschaffen hat. Ich zum Beispiel war auf meine Depeche-Mode-Postersammlung stolz, denn dafür hatte ich echt geschuftet. Auf unsere erste Parole-Emil-Kassette war ich auch mächtig stolz, denn die hatten wir ganz alleine gebastelt. Auf Deutschland wollte ich nicht stolz sein. Das war mir viel zu abstrakt.

There is evidence that ageing is in part caused by accumulated DNA damage 76 .First, various endogenously arising DNA lesions accumulate with age in the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes of healthy mammals, including humans 42,76,77 . This may reflect not only ongoing DNA-damage induction but also declining DNA-repair capacity over time 68,73 .Second, patients with inherited DDR defects often display features of premature ageing (Supplementary Table 1).Third, work in various organisms has implicated growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor 1 signalling in regulating longevity, and notably, such signalling is downregulated in response to DNA damage

Herr Bohnsack comienza con un chiste, que contó en un almuerzo allá por 1980 ante un grupo de colegas en un restaurante reservado a los altos cuadros de la Stasi. Se reclina en su silla y sonríe, como el que se regocija en su secretito. —Estados Unidos, la Unión Soviética y la RDA quieren sacar a flote el Titanic —dice arqueando las cejas—. Estados Unidos quiere las joyas que se supone que deben estar en la caja fuerte. Los soviéticos quieren la tecnología más puntera, y la RDA… —se bebe lo que le queda de Korn, a modo de pausa dramática— la RDA quiere a la banda que tocaba mientras se hundía.

perhaps because of the way he dressed, I thought of a goth girl named Rachel who had really transformed herself by playing Dance Dance Revolution (DDR),

He opened the bag and checked its contents: one refurbished Apple DuoPro II laptop computer and two unlocked smartphones. He pulled out the laptop and ran his hand along its sleek profile. “Did you make sure to ask for the dual-core 5.6 gigahertz processor and the DDR6 memory?

Eines Tages müssen wir alle sterben. Aber an allen anderen Tagen nicht!

A hardliner by nature, Honecker was nonetheless more open to rock music. But rather than import music by decadent capitalist puppets like the Doors or the Stones, he determined the DDR should foster its own rock culture. This led to a string of officially sanctioned East German rock bands dominating Free German Youth concerts and DDR youth radio during the 1970s. Bands with names like the Puhdys, Renft, Electra-Combo, Karussell, and Stern-Combo Meissen aped Deep Purple, Uriah Heep, King Crimson, Blood, Sweat & Tears, and Jethro Tull—and landed deals with the government record label, Amiga, the sole music manufacturer and distributor in the tightly-controlled East German media system.

»Das Beste an der DDR war, dass das Geld nichts wert war!«

On a number of occasions, Tamara joined “Che” on his sorties into the Bolivian highlands, without incident. However, on March 24, 1967, a guerrilla fighter who had been captured by the Bolivian army betrayed her by giving away Tamara’s location. Although she escaped, the Bolivian soldiers found an address book in her Jeep and came after her in hot pursuit. With no other place to hide, she made her way back to “Che” Guevara’s forces. It was considered an open secret that Tamara had been intimate with “Che” but now the troops could not help but notice what was going on. The way they looked into each other’s eyes, and whispered sweet nothings, left no doubt in anyone’s mind, but that she was his lover…. The Bolivian highlands are notorious for the infestation of the Chigoe flea parasite, which infected Tamara. Having a leg injury and running a high fever, she and 16 other ailing fighters were ordered out of the region by Guevara. On August 31, 1967, up to her waist in the Rio Grande of Bolivia, and holding her M 1 rifle above her head, she and eight men were shot and killed in a hail of gunfire by Bolivian soldiers. Leaving their bodies in the water, it was several days before they were recovered downstream. Piranhas had attacked the bodies and their decomposing carcasses were polluting the water. Since the water was being used for drinking purposes by the people in a nearby village, the soldiers were ordered to clear the bodies out of the river. As they were preparing to bury Tamara’s remains in an unmarked grave, a local woman protested what was happening, and demanded that a woman should receive a Christian burial. When he received the news of what had happened, Guevara was stunned and refused to accept it, thinking it was just a propaganda stunt to demoralize him. In Havana Fidel Castro declared her a “Heroine of the Revolution.” There is always the possibility that Tamara was a double agent, whose mission it was to play up to “Che” when they met in Leipzig and then report back to the DDR (Democratic German Republic), who would in turn inform the USSR of “Che’s” activities. The spy game is a little like peeling an onion. Peel off one layer and what you find is yet another layer.

Und das ist noch lange nicht das Ende. Wenn erst mal alle aus der DDR da sind, kommen dann noch die von ganz hinten aus dem Osten, wo der Hund begraben ist. Alle heim ins Reich, aber mit 50 Jahren Verspätung

Mi madre fue más lista que yo, dijo enseguida: Christl, te digo una cosa, la belleza pasa, pero el tonto, tonto se queda.

Try and understand your parents, Karl. You owe us at least that much. I know you’re angry. You feel wounded. You think that Helge and I were obsessed with the Idea, that it finally imploded, and this has made you suspicious of all ideas. And yet you know full well that our Idea was not the DDR. You can make many criticisms of Marx, but to hold him responsible for our so-called socialist experiences is unfair.

Als sie Stalin kippten, das war klar, War auch Lenin nicht mehr lang zu haben.

Proteste herauszufordern ist meistens Taktik, Proteste niederzuschießen ist meist ein Verbrechen, aber Proteste herauszufordern um sie niederzuschießen, ist Perversion.

The problem in the DDR wasn't No Future, the rallying cry of British Punk. As Planlos guitarist Kobs liked to say, the problem in East Germany was Too Much Future.

Die Parteispitze, die Intelligenz – alle rockten und rollten durch die Gegend, und unsere braven stinklangweiligen DDR-Lipsi hatten restlos verloren. Ein wenig befremdend ist es immer wieder für mich, zu sehen, wie Genossen ihre Häute abwerfen und schwache Menschen werden. (Ich hab so einen netten Kinderglauben an die Kraft von Ideen, die den Menschen auch in seinem tiefsten Innern verwandeln. Aber nein, man spürt nichts davon.

She just wanted to be herself, and doing, saying, reading and writing the things that would have made her feel like herself were all verboten.

Kids in tje East had also grown up with a genuine sense of fear that the world might actually come to an end during their lifetime. That it probably would in fact. For some this fueled nihilistic feelings - one reason Toster from Die Anderen, for instance, never got deeply political was because he stopped giving a shit.

And as the Stasi began to pay more and more attention to the new network, they made the same mistake they had when trying to break up the punk scene a few years before: they sought to identify leaders and focus on undermining them. The Stasi assumed every organisation had a top-down structure like the Stasi, like the Party, like the dictatorship.
