Text Quotes
Business, labor and civil society organizations have skills and resources that are vital in helping to build a more robust global community.  (Civil Quotes) A healthy society rests on three pillars: business, government and civil society, or non-profits. Each has a distinct and important role to play, and all three need to work together synergistically to create the most value for society.  (Civil Quotes) One of the main lessons I have learned the last five years as Secretary-General is that the United Nations cannot function properly without the support of the business community and civil society. We need to have tripartite support - the governments, the business communities and the civil society.  (Civil Quotes) In civil business; what first? boldness; what second and third? boldness: and yet boldness is a child of ignorance and baseness.  (Civil Quotes) If we buy into the notion that somehow property rights are less important, or are in conflict with, human or civil rights, we give the socialists a freer hand to attack our property.  (Civil Quotes) We need to regain the art of civil discourse and more practically, I don’t think you change anyone’s mind by calling them names.  (Civil Quotes) Justice is indivisible. You can’t decide who gets civil rights and who doesn’t.  (Civil Quotes) Disobedience, to be civil, implies discipline, thought, care, attention  (Civil Quotes) Civil and political rights are critical, but not often the real problem for the destitute sick. My patients in Haiti can now vote but they can’t get medical care or clean water.  (Civil Quotes) I think people underestimate the romance audience. It’s everything from career women to high school girls to elderly women. I have male readers, too, especially for the Civil War books.  (Civil Quotes) I had been involved in the March on Washington in 1963. I was with friends carrying a sign, ‘Protestants, Jews and Catholics for Civil Rights.’  (Civil Quotes) Causes of Civil War are also, that the Wealth of the Nation is in too few mens hands, and that no certain means are provided to keep all men from a necessity either to beg, or steal, or be Souldiers.  (Civil Quotes) There were three causes that accounted for the proclamation of martial law in Poland. First it was the progressing economic ruin of the country. Second, it was the decomposition of the functioning of the state. And third, a threat of a civil war.  (Civil Quotes) After the Spanish Civil War against Franco, a group of us got together: a group of well-to-do people who were sympathetic to the lost cause of a Republican state. We bought a convent in Toulouse and converted it into a hospital run by the Unitarians. It took care of the Spanish refugees who fled to Toulouse.  (Civil Quotes) I had very little exposure to business growing up. I also was very focused on the Civil Rights Movement. And I saw law as a vehicle to really bring about substantial change.  (Civil Quotes) At the same time the folk boom was happening, the civil rights movement was happening, the anti-war movement was happening, the ban the bomb movement was happening, the environmental movement was happening. There was suddenly a generation ready to change the course of history.  (Civil Quotes) Only in South Africa could you have a change in government without civil war. If there wasn’t the depth of love and caring among our people, this would not have happened.  (Civil Quotes) Changes to parliamentary procedure won’t transform the lives of the people whom I represent. Decentralising, devolving decision-making and renewing civil society will.  (Civil Quotes) A civil tongue speaks the language of masters. An uncivil tongue reveals character flaws of its master.  (Civil Quotes) So often, we leave the selfless side of ourselves for nights and weekends, for our charity work. It is our duty to inject that into our day-to-day business, into the work that we do, to improve corporations, to improve civil society, and to improve government.  (Civil Quotes) Providing all Latin-American children with the education and early childhood development that they need is in the best interest of all, so it has to be a priority for all of us, not only the government and civil society, but also the business sector.  (Civil Quotes) The civil government ... functions with complete success ... by the total separation of the Church from the State.  (Civil Quotes) Prior to the Civil War, most libraries were either privately owned or housed in universities or churches.  (Civil Quotes) I support gay unions. I think the government should get out of the marriage business completely - leave marriages to the churches. And grant civil unions to gay couples, grant civil unions to a man and woman.  (Civil Quotes) Air power and military are meant to fight the enemy and not your own citizens... How do you differentiate a Maoist?... It will create a civil war-like situation.  (Civil Quotes) The army is the only order of men sufficiently united to concur in the same sentiments, and powerful enough to impose them on the rest of their fellow-citizens; but the temper of soldiers, habituated at once to violence and to slavery, renders them very unfit guardians of a legal, or even a civil constitution.  (Civil Quotes) You probably know the name of Rosa Parks. You probably know that her refusal to move to the colored section in the back of a city bus sparked the Montgomery bus boycotts, one of the pivotal moments in the American civil rights movement.  (Civil Quotes) One’s politics are part of one even when one is writing. But if I want to say anything about the state of civil society, I will write an essay. The responsibilities you feel as a novelist are literary ones, I think, not civic ones. And I think politicians are interesting to write about.  (Civil Quotes) There is no contradiction between effective law enforcement and respect for civil and human rights. Dr. King did not stir us to move for our civil rights to have them taken away in these kinds of fashions.  (Civil Quotes) Improving the Internet is just one means, albeit an important one, by which to improve the human condition. It must be done with an appreciation for the civil and human rights that deserve protection - without pretending that access itself is such a right.  (Civil Quotes)
