Muhammad Yunus frasi celebri

“Dato che il capitalismo è un sistema incompleto, bisogna integrarlo introducendo un nuovo tipo d’impresa, che tenga nel giusto conto la natura multidimensionale degli esseri umani.”

Muhammad Yunus

libro La promessa del business sociale

“L'elargizione di denaro non costituisce una soluzione, né a breve né a lungo termine. Il mendicante passerà a un'altra auto, e poi a un'altra ancora, affidandosi per sopravvivere a un meccanismo senza via d'uscita. […] La carità può avere effetti devastanti. Chi raccoglie denaro mendicando non è motivato a migliorarsi; […] mendicare priva l'uomo della sua dignità. […] lo rende passivo e incline a una mentalità parassitaria.”

Muhammad Yunus

Il banchiere dei poveri

“Credo fermamente che l'università non debba essere una torre d'avorio, dove pochi intellettuali si ingegnano a raggiungere vette sempre più alte di conoscenza, senza mai condividere con il mondo che preme ai suoi confini.”

Muhammad Yunus

Il banchiere dei poveri

“La sconfitta di ogni fanatismo consegue in modo naturale all'abolizione della povertà e alla liberazione umana dei poveri.”

Muhammad Yunus

Il banchiere dei poveri

“Da quel giorno mi dedicai a disimparare la teoria e a prendere lezioni dalla realtà. Per trovarla non dovevo andare lontano: la realtà era ovunque, bastava uscire dall'aula.”

“I will not spend the money for myself. I will rather spend it in special business on a no-profit-no-loss policy. We will also establish an eye hospital where even beggars will be given treatment at the cost of Taka 10-20.”

The Daily Star (14 October 2006)

“I believe that "government", as we know it today, should pull out of most things except for law enforcement and justice, national defense and foreign policy, and let the private sector, a "Grameenized private sector", a social-consciousness-driven private sector, take over their other functions.”

Muhammad Yunus libro Banker to the Poor

Autobiography : Banker to the Poor (2001)

“To me poor people are like bonsai trees. When you plant the best seed of the tallest tree in a flower-pot, you get a replica of the tallest tree, only inches tall. There is nothing wrong with the seed you planted, only the soil-base that is too inadequate. Poor people are bonsai people. There is nothing wrong in their seeds. Simply, society never gave them the base to grow on. All it needs to get the poor people out of poverty for us to create an enabling environment for them. Once the poor can unleash their energy and creativity, poverty will disappear very quickly.”

Muhammad Yunus

The Daily Star (14 October 2006)

“If you are born into a poor family, if you are a woman you have seen the worst of poverty. In a cultural way in the families in Bangladesh it's the women who eats last. So if you have a scarcity in the family … she misses out so everything comes in the raw deal for her. So, given a chance she works very hard to make a change to improve her life. And by training she is the most efficient manager of scarce resources. Because with the little resource she has, she has to stretch it as much as she can to look after the children, look after the family and everything else.. unlike men - men want to enjoy right away. Whatever he got, whatever tiny bit of thing he got he doesn't care for much what's coming up.”
