Torschluss-Panik ,2012
Herkunft :
Anmerkung : In the Middle Ages when European cities had enclosing walls to protect the inhabitants, the gates would be shut at night. ‘Torschluss-Panik’ literally means ‘gate-shut panic’, or the fear that one might not return to the city in time and be shut out, having to face the dangers of the night – wild animals, marauding bandits or possibly inclement weather. Metaphorically it refers nowadays to the fear that time is running out … so much to do, so little time!
