Humankind

Humankind Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Humankind

1.
Everyone is as God made him, and often a great deal worse.
Cervantes, Miguel De

2.
Man is more interesting than men. God made him and not them in his image. Each one is more precious than all.
Gide, Andre

3.
Humanity I love you because when you're hard up you pawn your intelligence to buy a drink
Cummings, E.E. (Edward. E.)

4.
I love men, not for what unites them, but for what divides them, and I want to know most of all what gnaws at their hearts.
Apollinaire, Guillaume

5.
People can be divided into two classes: those who go ahead and do something, and those who sit still and inquire,why wasn't it done the other way?
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

6.
God must love the common man, he made so many of them.
Lincoln, Abraham

7.
We ought to think that we are one of the leaves of a tree, and the tree is all humanity. We cannot live without the others, without the tree.
Casals, Pablo

8.
When all is done, human life is, at the greatest and the best, but like a froward child, that must be played with and humored a little to keep it quiet till it falls asleep, and then the care is over.
Temple, Sir William

9.
We cannot despair of humanity, since we ourselves are human beings.
Einstein, Albert

10.
The decay of decency in the modern age, the rebellion against law and good faith, the treatment of human beings as things, as the mere instruments of power and ambition, is without a doubt the consequence of the decay of the belief in man as something more than an animal animated by highly conditioned reflexes and chemical reactions. For, unless man is something more than that, he has no rights that anyone is bound to respect, and there are no limitations upon his conduct which he is bound to obey.
Lippmann, Walter

11.
It is peculiar to mankind to transcend mankind.
Schlegel, Friedrich

12.
Man is a substance clad in shadows.
Sterling, John

13.
It is well to remember that the entire population of the universe, with one trifling exception, is composed of others.
Holmes, John Andrew

14.
After all there is but one race -- humanity.
Moore, George

15.
Man is a being in search of meaning.
Plato

16.
The basic fact about human existence is not that it is a tragedy, but that it is a bore. It is not so much a war as an endless standing in line.
Mencken, H. L.

17.
As far as many statistical series that are related to activities of mankind are concerned, the date that divides human history into two equal parts is well within living memory. The world of today is as different from the world I was born in as that world was from Julius Caesar s. I was born in the middle of human history, to date, roughly. Almost as much has happened since I was born as happened before.
Boulding, Kenneth Ewart

18.
I am not an Athenian, nor a Greek, but a citizen of the world.
Socrates

19.
Ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. [Genesis 3:5]
Bible

20.
Mankind must evolve for all human conflict a method which rejects revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method is love.
King Jr. Martin Luther

21.
There are realities we all share, regardless of our nationality, language, or individual tastes. As we need food, so do we need emotional nourishment: love, kindness, appreciation, and support from others. We need to understand our environment and our relationship to it. We need to fulfill certain inner hungers: the need for happiness, for peace of mind for wisdom.
Walters, J. Donald

22.
The Goddamn human race deserves itself, and as far as I'm concerned it can have it.
Janeway, Elizabeth

23.
The world of men is dreaming, it has gone mad in its sleep, and a snake is strangling it, but it can't wake up.
Lawrence, D. H.

24.
The history of mankind is the history of ideas.
Mises, Ludwig Von

25.
Man is no longer an artist, he has become a work of art.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

26.
Of mankind we may say in general they are fickle, hypocritical, and greedy of gain.
Machiavelli, Niccolo

27.
There is nothing on earth divine except humanity.
Landor, Walter Savage

28.
An effective human being is a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts.
Rolf, Ida P.

29.
We're all of us guinea pigs in the laboratory of God. Humanity is just a work in progress.
Williams, Tennessee

30.
A human being is a single being. Unique and unrepeatable.
Caddy, Eileen

31.
Being reproached for giving to an unworthy person, Aristotle said, I did not give it to the man, but to humanity.
Johnson

32.
There are two kinds of men who never amount to much -- those who cannot do what they are told and those who can do nothing else.
Curtis, Cyrus H. K

33.
Always observe how ephemeral and worthless human things are. Pass then through this little space of time conformably to nature, and end thy journey in content, just as an olive falls off when it is ripe, blessing nature who produced it, and thanking the tree on which it grew.
Aurelius, Marcus

34.
A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.
Heinlein, Robert

35.
Those who live in a world of human beings can only retrace their steps.
Sarraute, Nathalie

36.
I am human and let nothing human be alien to me.
Terence

37.
The simplest single-celled organism oscillates to a number of different frequencies, at the atomic, molecular, sub-cellular, and cellular levels. Microscopic movies of these organisms are striking for the ceaseless, rhythmic pulsation that is revealed. In an organism as complex as a human being, the frequencies of oscillation and the interactions between those frequencies are multitudinous.
Leonard, George

38.
Be tolerant of the human race. Your whole family belongs to it -- and some of your spouse's family does too.

39.
It's funny. All you have to do is say something nobody understands and they'll do practically anything you want them to.
Caulfield, Holden

40.
There are two distinctive classes of people today, those who have personal computers, and those who have several thousand extra dollars apiece.
Barry, Dave

41.
Humanity is the virtue of a woman, generosity that of a man.
Smith, Adam

42.
Man is an ape with possibilities.
Andrews, Roy Chapman

43.
Our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children's future. And we are all mortal.
Kennedy, John F.

44.
Though man is the only beast that can write, he has small reason to be proud of it. When he utters something that is wise it is nothing that the river horse does not know, and most of his creations are the result of accident.
Dahlberg, Edward

45.
As the archeology of our thought easily shows, man is an invention of recent date. And one perhaps nearing its end.
Foucault, Michel

46.
If we consider the superiority of the human species, the size of its brain, its powers of thinking, language and organization, we can say this: were there the slightest possibility that another rival or superior species might appear, on earth or elsewhere, man would use every means at his disposal to destroy it.
Baudrillard, Jean

47.
The man who is forever disturbed about the condition of humanity either has no problems of his own or has refused to face them.
Miller, Henry

48.
Human beings are the only animals of which I am thoroughly and cravenly afraid.
Shaw, George Bernard

49.
Human affairs are not serious, but they have to be taken seriously.
Murdoch, Iris

50.
If the human race wishes to have a prolonged and indefinite period of material prosperity, they have only got to behave in a peaceful and helpful way toward one another
Churchill, Winston
