Children have no use for psychology. They detest sociology. They still believe in God, the family, angels, devils, witches, goblins, logic, clarity, punctuation, and other such obsolete stuff. When a book is boring, they yawn openly. They don't expect their writer to redeem humanity, but leave to adults such childish allusions.
Isaac Bashevis Singer
Flowers seem intended for the solace of ordinary humanity.
John Ruskin
A really great man is known by three signs: generosity in the design, humanity in the execution, moderation in success.
Otto von Bismarck
It is in literature that the concrete outlook of humanity receives its expression
Alfred North Whitehead
A disquieting era of genetic manipulation is coming, one that may revolutionize human capacities, and notions of health. If we treat moral scruples impatiently, as inherently retrograde in a scientifically advancing civilization, we will not be in moral trim when, soon, our very humanity depends on our being in trim.
George F. Will
By recognizing that the chemical atom is composed of single separable electric quanta, humanity has taken a great step forward in the investigation of the natural world.
Johannes Stark
When we lose twenty pounds... we may be losing the twenty best pounds we have! We may be losing the pounds that contain our genius, our humanity, our love and honesty
Woody Allen
I am one of those who think like Nobel, that humanity will draw more good than evil from new discoveries.
Marie Curie
This idea of weapons of mass extermination is utterly horrible, and is something that no one with a spark of humanity can tolerate. I will not pretend to obeya Government that is organizing a mass massacre of mankind.
Bertrand Russell
Passion is universal humanity. Without it religion, history, romance and art would be useless.
Honore De Balzac
The fundamental delusion of humanity is to suppose that I am here and you are out there.
Yasutani Roshi
The sole meaning of life is to serve humanity.
Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy
Humanity will one day be defined, not by the gifts we possess but the virtues we lack.
Unknown
You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.
Mahatma Gandhi
