Quotations by Subject: Mankind (28 quotes)

Results from Cole's Quotables:

Conservation is humanity caring for the future.: Nancy Newhall
Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan "press on" has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.: Calvin Coolidge (1872 - 1933)
Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe.: H. G. Wells (1866 - 1946)
The most wonderful of all things in life, I believe, is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a glowing depth, beauty, and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing, it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of Divine accident.: Sir Hugh Walpole
Human kind cannot bear much reality.: T. S. Eliot (1888 - 1965)
The greatest revolution in our generation is that of human beings, who by changing the inner attitudes of their minds, can change the outer aspects of their lives.: Marilyn Ferguson
The first human who hurled an insult instead of a stone was the founder of civilization.: Sigmund Freud (1856 - 1939)
It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.: Robert F. Kennedy (1925 - 1968), South Africa, 1966
Wherever you come near the human race there's layers and layers of nonsense.: Thornton Wilder (1897 - 1975), Our Town
The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all.: H. L. Mencken (1880 - 1956)
