Text Quotes
We don’t understand the power of nature and the world because we don’t live with it. Our environment is designed to sustain us. We are the domestic pets of a human zoo called civilization (Civilization Quotes)
Anything that we scientists can do to weaken the hold of religion, should be done and may, in fact, in the end, be our greatest contribution to civilization (Civilization Quotes)
Women’s fight for equal rights is essentially a humanist and peaceful struggle for true democracy, and a higher form of civilization (Civilization Quotes)
Our civilization depends critically on software, and we have a dangerously low degree of professionalism in the computer fields (Civilization Quotes)
If we believe in the rebirth of our civilization... then clearly this renaissance must begin in the chambers of our own hearts... We cannot wait for society to change, or for our institutions to be renewed. We, as individuals, must assume responsibility for our own personal transformation (Civilization Quotes)
Early in my career I discovered that there was something really special about photographing at night that places your mind on the surface of the planet. You’re no longer just a human being walking around in the regular world. You’re a human animal striding around on the surface of the planet that’s out in the middle of the galaxy. We as a culture, we’re forgetting that we are actually natural organisms and that we have this very deep connection and contact with nature. You can’t divorce civilization from nature. We totally depend on it (Civilization Quotes)
If you see, in the spectrum of a planet host star, strange chemical elements, it can be a signal from a civilization which is there (Civilization Quotes)
Our fantastic civilization has fallen out of touch with many aspects of nature, and with none more completely than with night (Civilization Quotes)
When civilization stands at the edge of a cliff, a step forward doesn’t make much sense (Civilization Quotes)
Writing keeps me at my desk, constantly trying to write a perfect sentence. It is a great privilege to make one’s living from writing sentences. The sentence is the greatest invention of civilization. To sit all day long assembling these extraordinary strings of words is a marvelous thing. I couldn’t ask for anything better. It’s as near to godliness as I can get (Civilization Quotes)
Avatar is the most high tech film in terms of its execution, dealing with essentially a very low tech subject; which is our relationship with nature... and in fact the irony is that the film is about our relationship with nature and how our technological civilization has taken us several removes away from a truly natural existence and the consequences of that to us (Civilization Quotes)
Civilization means, above all, an unwillingness to inflict unnecessary pain... those of us who heedlessly accept the commands of authority cannot yet claim to be civilized men (Civilization Quotes)
Our community of rebels, of humble truth seekers, wants to turn our culture around. We don’t despise our country. We don’t desire failure. We desire light, a beacon to show the world that our wealth need not show the way to more rapid destruction, but can be leveraged to heal more acres, more backyards, more communities faster than any civilization on the right path has ever done it (Civilization Quotes)
I think the biggest reason otherwise radical people don’t want to face the necessity of ending industrial civilization is privilege. We’re the ones reaping the benefits. We’ve sold out the rest of life on earth for convenience, creature comforts, and cheap consumer goods, and it’s appalling. I’m sickened by this bargain (Civilization Quotes)
Since humans first huddled around campfires, stories have been told of wild horses with wind in their manes, fire in their eyes and freedom in their hearts. Those horses eluded capture, and scorned the comforts of civilization. Americans have insisted they want their wild horses to live that way, forever (Civilization Quotes)
Our civilization is facing a radical, imminent mass change. The alternative to the hierarchical power structure is based on mutual aid and group consensus. As hackers we can learn these systems, manipulate these systems, and shut down these systems if we need to (Civilization Quotes)
A log cabin symbolized the embrace between civilization and nature, humans literally wrapping the trees around them as they might draw on a coat and hat (Civilization Quotes)
The aim of eugenics is to represent each class or sect by its best specimens; that done, to leave them to work out their common civilization in their own way (Civilization Quotes)
In our civilization, there are permanent forms which are part of every epoch and every culture. They are not especially difficult to detect. A minimal knowledge of physics, astrophysics, and perhaps mathematics, brings to light certain patterns that make these subjects easier to understand. It is striking to see the extreme similarity between these scientific propositions and the forms that recur in all times, places and civilizations (Civilization Quotes)
Humankind is able to create new conditions, a new reality. We are not fated to swim forever among the realities that are here now... Everything that is worthwhile in human civilization has not only originated from but has been inspired by dreams, by imagination (Civilization Quotes)
Practical application is found by not looking for it, and one can say that the whole progress of civilization rests on that principle (Civilization Quotes)
Perhaps, some day, humanity can start afresh, a new world, a tabula rasa, a world with a mind without prior experiences. No memories and no pain. A day when the ones with abundance do not look down at the poor and the needy, a day when we learn to care for the victims, the fallen souls of civilization and advancement, a day when the world will be pure. When all of humanity becomes a clean sheet of parchment, without knowledge and prejudice, simple, hungry for knowing, tasting, and feeling; hungry for life and ready to absorb the ink of experience (Civilization Quotes)
Science is the most reliable guide for civilization, for life, for success in the world. Searching a guide other than the science is meaning carelessness, ignorance and heresy (Civilization Quotes)
If the humanism that makes civilization civilized is to be preserved into the new century, it will need advocates. These advocates will need a memory, and part of that memory will need to be of an age in which they were not yet alive (Civilization Quotes)
The basic problem is that our civilization, which is a civilization of machines, can teach man everything except how to be a man (Civilization Quotes)
Human life is an extension of the principles of nature, and human civilization is a venture extrapolated out of human natures: man and his natural potential are the root of the entire human domain. The great task of all philosophizing is to become competent to interpret and steer the potential developmental forces in human natures and in the human condition, both of which are prodigiously fatalistic (Civilization Quotes)
Induction makes you feel guilty for getting something out of nothing, and it is artificial, but it is one of the greatest ideas of civilization (Civilization Quotes)
Fear of change is a part of the state of fear man has ever lived in but out of which he has begun to escape. Civilization might be defined indeed as the steps in his escape (Civilization Quotes)
In the face of an absolutely unprecedented emergency, society has no choice but to take dramatic action to avert a collapse of civilization. Either we will change our ways and build an entirely new kind of global society, or they will be changed for us (Civilization Quotes)
One could judge the degree of civilization of a country by the social and political position of its women (Civilization Quotes)
