Quotes:

As you pass from the tender years of youth into harsh and embittered manhood, make sure you take with you on your journey all the human emotions! Don't leave them on the road, for you will not pick them up afterwards!
View quotes by Nikolai Gogol

The human animal cannot be trusted for anything good except en masse. The combined thought and action of the whole people of any race, creed or nationality, will always point in the right direction.
View quotes by Harry S Truman

Most of our history in space has been communicated in terms of action - what people do, a chronological list of events which have transpired - as opposed to the human experience of having done those things.
View quotes by Story Musgrave

If human beings are perceived as potentials rather than problems, as possessing strengths instead of weaknesses, as unlimited rather that dull and unresponsive, then they thrive and grow to their capabilities.
View quotes by Barbara Bush

Joy, rather than happiness, is the goal of life, for joy is the emotion which accompanies our fulfilling our natures as human beings. It is based on the experience of one's identity as a being of worth and dignity.
View quotes by Rollo May

I suggest that the anthropomorphic god-idea is not a harmless infirmity of human thought, but a very noxious fallacy, which is largely responsible for the calamities the world is at present enduring.
View quotes by William Archer

Human speech is like a cracked kettle on which we tap crude rhythms for bears to dance to, while we long to make music that will melt the stars (Madame Bovary)
View quotes by Gustav Flaubert

The diversity of the phenomena of nature is so great, and the treasures hidden in the heavens so rich, precisely in order that the human mind shall never be lacking in fresh nourishment.
View quotes by Johannes Kepler

We are at the very beginning of time for the human race. It is not unreasonable that we grapple with problems. But there are tens of thousands of years in the future. Our responsibility is to do what we can, learn what we can, improve the solutions, and pass them on.
View quotes by Richard Feynman

The great renewal of the world will perhaps consist in this, that man and maid, freed of all false feelings and reluctances, will seek each other not as opposites, but as brother and sister, as neighbors, and will come together as human beings.
View quotes by Rainer Maria Rilke

Because psychologists have been able to discover, exactly as in a slow-motion picture, the way the human creature acquires knowledge and habits, the normal child has been vastly helped by what the retarded have taught us.
View quotes by Pearl Buck

The higher mental development of woman, the less possible it is for her to meet a congenial male who will see in her, not only sex, but also the human being, the friend, the comrade and strong individuality, who cannot and ought not lose a single trait of her character.
View quotes by Emma Goldman

A belief in hell and the knowledge that every ambition is doomed to frustration at the hands of a skeleton have never prevented the majority of human beings from behaving as though death were no more than an unfounded rumour.
View quotes by Aldous Huxley

One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today.
View quotes by Dale Carnegie

The Avatar appears to be human and we are misled into thinking of him in these terms but the Avatar himself warns us against this error.
View quotes by Sri Sathya Sai Baba

Somebody has to be prepared to be the good guy from time to time in order for the human race to prosper, though most people don't want it to be them.
View quotes by Wally George

In human hearts what bolder thoughts can rise,
Than man's presumption on to-morrow's dawn!
Where is to-morrow?
View quotes by Edward Young

Mirth is the sweet wine of human life. It should be offered sparkling with zestful life unto God.
View quotes by Henry Ward Beecher

He who rejects change is the architect of decay. The only human institution which rejects progress is the cemetery.
View quotes by Harold Wilson

I say to you that the price of liberty is and always has been blood - human blood. [A cheery thought from J Reuben Clark!]
