Muhammad Yunus Quote: “It’s very difficult to look at it in a kind of a free manner, what reality is. That was my first struggle, to see it as it is, rather than tainted by my own previous thoughts.”

Muhammad Yunus Quote: “We have to get out of this mindset that the rich will do the business and the poor will have the charity.”
Muhammad Yunus Quote: “In a bird’s eye view you tend to survey everything and decide on a particular point, then you swoop down and pick it up. In a worms eye view you don’t have that advantage of looking at everything.”
Muhammad Yunus Quote: “In the future the question will not be, “Are people credit-worthy”, but rather, “Are banks people-worthy?””
Muhammad Yunus Quote: “Changes are products of intensive efforts.”
Muhammad Yunus Quote: “Once poverty is gone, we’ll need to build museums to display its horrors to future generations. They’ll wonder why poverty continued so long in human society – how a few people could live in luxury while billions dwelt in misery, deprivation and despair.”

Let’s take the next impossible, do it with joy and get it finished with and create a world free from poverty. Let us create the world of our choice.”
Muhammad Yunus Quote: “Money begets money. If you don’t have that, you wait around to be hired by somebody at the mercy of others. If you have that money in your hand, you desperately try to make the best use of it and move ahead. And that’s generating income for yourself.”
Muhammad Yunus Quote: “I have always said that human beings are multidimensional beings. Their happiness comes from many sources, not, as our current economic framework assumes, just from making money.”
Muhammad Yunus Quote: “I believe that we can create a poverty-free world because poverty is not created by poor people. It has been created and sustained by the economic and social systems that we have designed for ourselves; the institutions and concepts that make up that system; the policies that we pursue.”
Muhammad Yunus Quote: “To overcome poverty and the flaws of the economic crisis in our society, we need to envision our social life. We have to free our mind, imagine what has never happened before and write social fiction. We need to imagine things to make them happen. If you don’t imagine, it will never happen.”
Muhammad Yunus Quote: “A university should not be an island where academics attain higher and higher levels of knowledge without sharing any of this knowledge with its neighbours.”
Muhammad Yunus Quote: “Like navigation markings in unknown waters, definitions of poverty need to be distinctive and unambiguous. A definition that is not precise is as bad as no definition at all.”
Muhammad Yunus Quote: “In Bangladesh, if a woman, even a rich woman, wants to borrow money from a bank, the manager will ask her, ‘Did you discuss this with your husband?’ And if she answers, ‘Yes,’ the manager will say, ‘Is he supportive of your proposal?’ If the answer is still, ‘Yes,’ he will say, ‘Would you please bring your husband along so that we can discuss it with him?’ But no manager would ever ask a prospective male borrower whether he has discussed the idea of a loan.”
Muhammad Yunus Quote: “It’s very difficult when you have learned something a certain way. Not only your mind absorbs it; your eyes also are trained to see in a certain way because eyes are only as good as you’ve been trained to see.”
Muhammad Yunus Quote: “One day our grandchildren will go to museums to see what poverty was like.”
