"I am convinced that we must do all we can to get out of this trough before we can return to a more balanced fiscal policy. We must quickly come back to the level of economic growth that would allow tax revenues to rise again." -- Angela Merkel

「我確信，我們必須先盡一切努力走出這個[經濟衰退的谷底]，才能恢復較均衡的財政政策。我們必須使經濟成長迅速回復到能讓稅收再度增加的水準。」-- 梅爾克
