I work very, very hard, so when I do get the chance to go out socially, it’s a relatively big night. I also have hobbies on the side, and quite often, one runs into the other.
I am not popular socially. I am uncomfortable around people.
I’ve always been interested in socially political, or overtly political, comedy. And I guess I’ve always liked to channel some kind of personal element to that.
The more socially intelligent you are, the happier and more robust and more enjoyable your relationships will be.
I think that slavery is wrong, morally, socially and politically. I desire that it should be no further spread in these United States, and I should not object if it should gradually terminate in the whole Union.
I have believed in the biographies I have written. I truly can tell you that they have influenced our society politically, culturally, socially.

Law breaking, graffiti artist, dumb jock that I am, I’m pretty socially conscious.
Drumming completely eclipsed my life from age 13, when I started drum lessons. Everything disappeared. I’d done well in school up until that time. I was fairly adjusted socially up until that time. And I became completely monomania, obsessed all through my teens. Nothing else existed anymore.
A lot of people like the idea of companies being socially involved in their community, but if you want big companies to get involved in social issues, what makes you think they’re going to come down on your side?

As Eric Weitz argues, the Weimar Republic (1919-1933) was not responsible for the Reich; it was a democratic, socially aware and progressive government, way ahead of many other European governments in its introduction of workers’ rights, public housing, unemployment benefit and suffrage for women.
I am passionate about what design can do – how far it can support the new ideas and the new ways of living of this 21st Century. Good design accelerates this exciting future where manufacturing is local, materials and processes are cradle to cradle, business models are both socially and financially driven.
I’m actually not a fan of the word ‘woke.’ I think the connotation of that means being socially aware, which is a beautiful thing to be. But it does not take into account being self-aware.
I feel like a lot of creative people are socially awkward.
I was socially isolated as a kid. I had friends, but I wasn’t very good at sports and that sort of thing so I became quite comfortable being by myself, exploring. The world was my private playground, and in it, I was supreme. Darwin, Faraday, Huxley and other great scientists were my companions.
We need to reach out to small ‘l’ liberal voters who have a modern outlook on life, who want a party that is hard-headed on the economy – more credible on the economy than Labour – but more socially progressive and fairer than the Conservatives.
There is a real fear around shifting from our existing economic system because people believe it gives us social organisation, a sense of freedom, and the ability to be nice to each other. Growth is seen as a social lubricant that allows us to be socially responsible.
I’m socially awkward in life, and that’s one of the reasons why I do what I do. I’m more about interpreting other people’s words.
Research has shown that children who play often both solitarily and socially become more creative and imaginative than those whose exposure to play and toys is limited.
I’m a loner. I like to be alone. I’m socially awkward.
I look at WorldstarHipHop in the morning, Bossip, Global Grind, and everything in between, but it’s all so quick, I don’t even think about it. And I’ve never been a fan of lyrical or socially conscious rap music.
We in the West walked away from Afghanistan at the end of the Cold War and left it as a country devastated socially and armed to the teeth. If we do that again, there will be consequences.
There’s no socially acceptable middle age.
One advantage to having a kid on the spectrum: they tend to be rule followers. Socially, things are harder for them than most kids.
The genius of the market is supposed to lie in its ability to allocate society’s resources to their most efficient uses without central direction. Labour has long recognised that efficiency doesn’t always correspond with what is socially optimal or, in other words, ‘fair.’
All of the significant art of today stems from Conceptual art. This includes the art of installation, political, feminist and socially directed art.
I am not generally regarded as a pleasant or socially minded fellow.

I am fiscally prudent and socially progressive. I believe in protecting a woman’s right to choose. I believe in marriage equality.
You may call me a Klansman if you will, but, potentially, every white man is a Klansman, as far as the Negro in competition with whites socially, economically and politically is concerned, and there is no use lying.
The old world of England was picturesque and safe in a way that L.A. wasn’t, but it was so amazingly socially cruel. I had never experienced that in America – never in school, nowhere.
I play in a league that’s 70 percent black and my peers, guys I come to work with, guys I respect who are very socially aware and are intellectual guys, if they identify something that they think is worth putting their reputations on the line, creating controversy, I’m going to listen to those guys.
My dad’s cool. He is socially liberal.
People just want to live their best lives. They want to be socially free, physically safe, and financially secure.
Being right too soon is socially unacceptable.

The first author I met socially was Joyce Cary.
A core plank of left-wing academic thought is that gender and race are ‘socially constructed.’
We’re socially constructed to hide our flaws, and that breeds pain for a lot of people.
L.A. runs on optimism, enthusiasm and flattery. I think you can go a little bit crazy. I’ve heard people say there’s a limit to the number of years you can stay in this city without going slightly mad. It’s just too damn sunny in every dimension – weather-wise, socially and professionally.
When things socially and politically get difficult, punk music suddenly comes back again, and there’s just a really healthy pivot away from music that’s not humanly understandable.
I’m a socially concerned citizen of India. I have strong views on issues of social and political relevance. But it’s very difficult to voice it in an intelligent manner without it sounding contrived. Because people think you’re saying or doing all this as a PR exercise, not from your heart.
I went to university and I was a bit out of my depth, socially.
Business cycles naturally entail peaks and troughs in employment, and socially responsible businesses should follow successful examples like Coca-Cola, Alcoa, Saudi Aramco, Africa Rainbow Minerals, and Google in working toward mitigating joblessness and enhancing people’s abilities to earn a livelihood.
I don’t consider myself sexy. I’m kind of a nervous person in general. I’m socially awkward. I’m not tall and sensuous. I usually wear sweats everywhere I go. Oh, and I burp a lot.

A feminist is a person who wants equal things for men and women, and I definitely believe in that. This doesn’t mean I will degrade anyone. In our house, I want my mother and father to have equal importance and that’s the only way to bring up a socially responsible child.
I’m from a very politically and socially conscious family. My mother always made a point of making us look at what was going on around us and take stock of our part in it.
It is no longer socially permissible to use race, explicitly, as a justification for discrimination, exclusion, and social contempt. So we don’t. Rather than rely on race, we use our criminal justice system to label people of color ‘criminals’ and then engage in all the practices we supposedly left behind.
Businesses perform better when you have diversity of view in your senior leadership positions. This is not just the right thing to do socially; it’s the right thing to do for your business.
