Eine Geschichte über 4 Personen (in Englisch)

  • “This is a story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody. There was an important job to do and Everybody was asked to do it. Everybody was sure Somebody would do it. Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it. Somebody got angry because it was Everybody’s job. Everybody thought Anybody would do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn’t do it. It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.”

  • That's what we call a modern civilization / social market economy nowadays - someone would have to do something at some point. To paraphrase a famous goalkeeper and two other protagonists: the subjunctive is the enemy of the loser.
