“Nos preguntamos cada vez más si lo que la gente aprende es realmente relevante para sus vidas, si lo que aprenden ayuda a asegurar la supervivencia de nuestro planeta. La educación para el desarrollo sostenible puede brindar los conocimientos, la conciencia y las acciones que empoderan a las personas para transformarse a sí mismas y transformar las sociedades.”
(Stefania Giannini)
“There is a very real sense in which certain crudities in the Americans are not so much a part of American crudity as actually a part of American culture. They are not mere outbreaks of human nature; they are something systematically impressed upon human nature.” (Chesterton)

“The originality of George MacDonald has also a historical significance, which perhaps can best be estimated by comparing him with his great countryman Carlyle. It is a measure of the very real power and even popularity of Puritanism in Scotland that Carlyle never lost the Puritan mood even when he lost the whole of the Puritan theology. If an escape from the bias of environment be the test of originality, Carlyle never completely escaped, and George MacDonald did. He evolved out of his own mystical meditations a complete alternative theology leading to a completely contrary mood. And in those mystical meditations he learned secrets far beyond the mere extension of Puritan indignation to ethics and politics.” (Chesterton)

“News agencies are rarely in the public eye. Yet they are one of the most influential and at the same time one of the least known media types. They are key institutions of substantial importance to any media system… ” (Wolfgang Vyslozil)
