But we have created a society that does not allow opportunities for those people to take care of themselves because we have denied them those opportunities. – Muhammad Yunus
Civilization has given us enormous successes: going to the moon, technology. But then this is the civilisation that took us to debt, environmental crisis, every single crisis. We need a civilization where we say goodbye to these things. – Muhammad Yunus
