Der Mond ist Bettnachbar, und Winterstürme scheinen durchs Wohnzimmer zu fegen. [G] The moon is a bedfellow, and winter storms appear to sweep through the living room.

Und solche Sprüche wie die des französischen Innenministers Sarkozy, der von "Hochdruckreinigern" gesprochen hat, mit denen er das "Gesindel" aus der Stadt fegen wolle, lehnt er scharf ab: "Es gibt keinen deutschen Politiker, dem ich einen solchen Satz zutraue." [G] And he strongly rejects the sort of language used by French Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy, who spoke of "high pressure cleaners" to sweep the "rabble" out of the city: "I cannot think of a German politician who would use such terms".
