There is nothing on earth divine except humanity.
The future may be made up of many factors but where it truly lies is in the hearts and minds of men. Your dedication should not be confined for your own gain, but unleashes your passion for our beloved country as well as for the integrity and humanity of mankind.
The essence of humanity’s spiritual dilemma is that we evolved genetically to accept one truth and discovered another. Is there a way to erase the dilemma, to resolve the contradictions between the transcendentalist and the empiricist world views?
Frankly, I’m not religious, but I believe in the cause of humanity – doing good work.
One should have humanity and should know what to speak and how to behave, and our lifestyle should be good.
My mission is a cosmic mission. My concern is for all of humanity, and not only this present world, but the world hereafter. My mission penetrates the past, present, and future, and encompasses all humanity.
We should preserve every scrap of biodiversity as priceless while we learn to use it and come to understand what it means to humanity.
I like a movie that brings out many discussions. From my experience, every time I have done movies, they create this kind of situation. Like ‘Irreversible,’ ‘The Passion of the Christ,’ ‘Malena’; it’s so interesting. I like to explore the dark side of humanity. That’s why I’m an actor.
A vast percentage of the human race is literally not wired neurologically to get irony. Well more than half of humanity takes life at face value, which is to me terrifying.
The task of leadership is not to put greatness into humanity, but to elicit it, for the greatness is already there.
I became hooked on ‘In Treatment,’ which was so finely written and performed. Such a simple idea, and yet it delved into very complex territory with real grace and humanity.
There is something insane about a lack of doubt. Doubt – to me, anyway – is what makes you human, and without doubt, even the righteous lose their grip, not only on reality but also on their humanity.
Democracy is a destiny of humanity which cannot be averted. It can be delayed but not defeated.
The world has placed chemical, biological and nuclear weapons in a separate category because their use constitutes a crime against all humanity.
Humanity should question itself, once more, about the absurd and always unfair phenomenon of war, on whose stage of death and pain only remain standing the negotiating table that could and should have prevented it.
The Earth is the cradle of humanity, but mankind cannot stay in the cradle forever.
If we want to discover the full potential in our humanity, we need to celebrate those heartbreaking strengths and those glorious disabilities we all have. It is our humanity and all the potential within it that makes us beautiful.
There’s a call to adventure. It’s something in the inner psyche of humanity, particularly males.
I don’t want to make any general statements, but I feel like so many stories that are presented as being about humanity and human emotion are just so convoluted and overly dramatic and focus on these certain little things that are supposedly meaningful, but just don’t really mean anything.
When the vastness of God meets the restriction of our own humanity, words can’t hold it. The best we can do is find the moments that rhyme with this expansive heart of God.
The new elites have no allegiances to nation states and don’t care about the damage they do to workers, the environment, or the rest of humanity. They are unhinged sociopaths, far removed from what the Occupy Movement called the ’99 percent.’
I have the legacy of my father and his nocturnal automatic waking up. But I like those periods. I immediately have a different vision of humanity and my life.
Having to wake up at seven and go take the subway every morning, having to get over there with all these commuters and see every possible face of humanity and realizing that you’re just the same as these other people is actually an amazingly positive thing.
We have a choice about how we take what happens to us in our life and whether or not we allow it to turn us. We can become consumed by hate and darkness, or we’re able to regain our humanity somehow, or come to terms with things and learn something about ourselves.
We must recognize that as the dominant power in the world we have a special responsibility. In addition to protecting our national interests, we must take the leadership in protecting the common interests of humanity.
I don’t know how an actress is supposed to observe and create new stuff if she hasn’t been on the streets, brushing up against humanity. You have to have a life.
We all, as engineers, doctors, have a big responsibility to bring smiles on the faces of suffering humanity.
Lies are essential to humanity. They are perhaps as important as the pursuit of pleasure and moreover are dictated by that pursuit.
Passion is universal humanity. Without it religion, history, romance and art would be useless.
Believing in the good of humanity is a revolutionary act – it means that we don’t need all those managers and CEO’s, kings and generals. That we can trust people to govern themselves and make their own decisions.
I feel every technology can be abused, but fundamentally we put new technologies into the service of humanity.
William James was not a prophet. He was a philosopher whose philosophy reflected his profound humanity.
Religion as a whole specializes in sin management. It’s all about organizing humanity in such a way that we cause as little damage as possible.
If humanity does not opt for integrity we are through completely. It is absolutely touch and go. Each one of us could make the difference.
In a world of democracies, the most deserving basis of national differences is that the different states of the world should represent a form of moral specialisation within humanity.
There are always great deals of humanity in the characters that have been offered to me.
In an ever-changing technological landscape, where today’s platforms are not tomorrow’s platforms, the key seems to be that any one of these spaces can use a dose of humanity and art and culture.
Unite liberality with a just frugality; always reserve something for the hand of charity; and never let your door be closed to the voice of suffering humanity.
I stopped caring so much about what people might think if I sung about love and humanity.
Literature is for the sake of humanity.
You write who you are somehow. Even if you try to not to. You can’t help but write who you are. I’m just not a very cynical person. I believe in the humanity of people, whether it is just the guys in ‘The Full Monty’ or Aron Ralston.
A true community is not just about being geographically close to someone or part of the same social web network. It’s about feeling connected and responsible for what happens. Humanity is our ultimate community, and everyone plays a crucial role.
We’re addicted to this concept of civilization – we can’t imagine living outside of it because we’ve had it for 10,000 years, all of what we call history. But according to archaeologists, humanity has been on this planet for millions of years in indigenous form.
It is not what a lawyer tells me I may do; but what humanity, reason, and justice tell me I ought to do.
It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity.
I can’t understand people calling themselves religious and being hateful. If a preacher is preaching hate, to fear God that’s not religion, that’s not helping humanity, that’s organizing an army to defeat somebody.
Of all living things, only humans consciously anticipate death; the consequent need to choose how to behave in its face – to worry about how to die – distinguishes us from other animals. The need to manage death is the particular lot of humanity.
In 1861, Bachofen published his radical thesis that the Amazons were not a myth but a fact. In his view, humanity started out under the rule of womankind and only switched to patriarchy at the dawn of civilization.

I like showing the gritty truthful dark side of humanity.
There’s nothing I like more than being on a dance floor with a thousand people feeling love for humanity.
Religion is not theory – it is life. It is not intellectual conviction – it is divine humanity, and nothing else.
The medieval Church believed that the resurrection of Christ marked a new time for all of humanity.
I think it’s fascinating that there’s a whole holiday dedicated to things that we fear and that’s so interesting about the nature of humanity.
The U.N.’s current projection is that humanity will number 9.3 billion individuals in 2050 and then hit 10.1 billion by 2100. Meanwhile, our energy resources are dwindling, and droughts threaten our food supplies.
I like roles of people who can overcome things because there’s strength in that and an arc – and roles where they start in one place, and toward the end of the script they end up in a completely different place, so you’ve seen this growth and some humanity in the role.
