If you really want to love humanity, then you have to love humanity as it is now.
Sri Chinmoy
Laughter is Humanity's mechanism to escape suffering.
Deepak Chopra
Wouldn't it have been better to change humanity so it no longer desired to destroy itself?
Orson Scott Card
The bond of our common humanity is stronger than the divisiveness of our fears and prejudices. God gives us the capacity for choice. We can choose to alleviate suffering. We can choose to work together for peace. We can make these changes and we must.
James Earl Carter, Jr.
Humanity-attached-to-the-task-of-changing-the-world, which is only a single and fragmentary aspect of humanity, will itself be changed in humanity-as-entirety.
Georges Bataille
Homogenization sterilizes. It's the sum of cultures and languages that makes humanity.
Pierre Bourgault
A jealous lover of human liberty, deeming it the absolute condition of all that we admire and respect in humanity, I reverse the phrase of Voltaire, and say that, if God really existed, it would be necessary to abolish him.
Mikhail Alexandrovich Bakunin
Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them, humanity cannot survive.
Dalai Lama
This is one of the paradoxes of the democratic movement -- that it loves a crowd and fears the individuals who compose it -- that the religion of humanity should have no faith in human beings.
Walter Lippmann
Benevolence is the characteristic element of humanity.
Confucius
The task of leadership is not to put greatness into humanity, but to elicit it, for the greatness is already there.
John Buchan
There is but one law for all, namely, that law which governs all law, the law of our Creator, the law of humanity, justice, equity the law of nature, and of nations.
Edmund Burke
The prosperity, and social vitality and technological progress of a people are directly determined by the extent of their liberty. Freedom honors and unleashes human creativity and creativity determines the strength and wealth of nations. Liberty is both the plan of Heaven for humanity, and the best hope for progress here on Earth.
George Walker Bush
The man was not merely very human; he was humanity. And I reflected that it is only by preserving faith in human dreams that we may, after all, perhaps some day make them come true.
James Branch Cabell
And hold Humanity one man, whose universal agony Still strains and strives to gain the goal, where agonies shall cease to be. Believe in all things; none believe; judge not nor warp by "Facts" the thought; See clear, hear clear, tho' life may seem My and Mirage, Dream and Naught. Abjure the Why and seek the How: the God and gods enthroned on high, Are silent all, are silent still; nor hear thy voice, nor deign reply. The Now, that indivisible point which studs the length of infinite line Whose ends are nowhere, is thine all, the puny all thou callest thine.
Sir Richard Francis Burton
