Text Quotes
For such an advanced civilization as ours to be without images that are adequate to it is as serious a defect as being without memory  (Civilization Quotes) Civilization is like a thin layer of ice upon a deep ocean of chaos and darkness  (Civilization Quotes) Dietary fat, whether saturated or not, is not a cause of obesity, heart disease or any other chronic disease of civilization  (Civilization Quotes) Treating an age group as a demographic requires coming up with something that’s common to every single one of them. Right?... So it’s reductionist in that it reduces an entire segment of civilization down to one person with one habit  (Civilization Quotes) I will tell you what is my overriding perception of the last twenty years: that we are a civilization careening toward a succession of anticlimaxes – toward an infinity of unsatisfying, and disagreeable endings  (Civilization Quotes) Of what value is a civilization that can’t toast a piece of bread as ordered?  (Civilization Quotes) It’s called civilization. Women invented it, and every time you men blow it all to bits, we just invent it again  (Civilization Quotes) There is no document of civilization that is not at the same time a document of barbarism  (Civilization Quotes) Maybe they didn’t want you to realize that every civilization has its weakness. There’s always one thing we depend on. And if someone takes it away all that’s left is some story in a history class  (Civilization Quotes) What then is the intellectual advantage of civilization over primitive savagery? It is not necessarily that each civilized man has more knowledge but that he requires far less  (Civilization Quotes) When kids look up to great scientists the way they do to great musicians and actors, civilization will jump to the next level  (Civilization Quotes) Almost as swiftly as he had imagined it, she had torn her clothes off, and when she flung them aside it was with that same magnificent gesture by which a whole civilization seemed to be annihilated  (Civilization Quotes) Civilization is not by means an easy thing to attain to. There are only two ways by which man can reach it. One is by being cultured, the other by being corrupt  (Civilization Quotes) What an extraordinary achievement for a civilization: to have developed the one diet that reliably makes its people sick!  (Civilization Quotes) A German immersed in any civilization different from his own loses a weight equivalent in volume to the amount of intelligence he displaces  (Civilization Quotes) A nation or civilization that continues to produce soft-minded men purchases its own spiritual death on the installment plan  (Civilization Quotes) Anglo-Saxon civilization has taught the individual to protect his own rights; American civilization will teach him to respect the rights of others  (Civilization Quotes) Artificial Intelligence leaves no doubt that it wants its audiences to enter a realm of pure fantasy when it identifies one of the last remaining islands of civilization as New Jersey  (Civilization Quotes) Books are the carriers of civilization. Without books, history is silent, literature dumb, science crippled, thought and speculation at a standstill. Without books, the development of civilization would have been impossible. They are engines of change (as the poet said), windows on the world and lighthouses erected in the sea of time. They are companions, teachers, magicians, bankers of the treasures of the mind. Books are humanity in print  (Civilization Quotes) In the end what will happen will be what has happened whenever a civilization breaks up. The people who have brains and courage come through and the ones who haven’t are winnowed out  (Civilization Quotes) Don’t blame me. Tell your mom to move closer. Tell her there’s this new club called civilization and you guys should join  (Civilization Quotes) Barbarian that I am, I had eaten all of it. It had tasted quite nice too. Still, I took note of this fact and resigned myself to throw away half of a perfectly good cheese if it was set in front of me. Such is the price of civilization  (Civilization Quotes) When you study history and look at every civilization that has grown up and died off, they all leave one remnant: a major sports colosseum at the heart of their capital. Our fate can be different; but only if we start doing things differently  (Civilization Quotes) The lunatic’s visions of horror are all drawn from the material of daily fact. Our civilization is founded on the shambles, and every individual existence goes out in a lonely spasm of helpless agony  (Civilization Quotes) It was very relaxing to be away from civilization, and this bothered me. I should not have found the loneliness so welcoming  (Civilization Quotes) What civilization is, is 6 billion people trying to make themselves happy by standing on each other’s shoulders and kicking each other’s teeth in. It’s not a pleasant situation  (Civilization Quotes) Western civilization is based upon the libertarian principle, and all its achievements are the results of the action of free men  (Civilization Quotes) It is the business of future to be dangerous... The major advances in civilization are processes that all but wreck the societies in which they occur  (Civilization Quotes) Civilization is not inherited; it has to be learned and earned by each generation anew; if the transmission should be interrupted for one century, civilization would die, and we should be savages again  (Civilization Quotes) A man’s hope measures his civilization. The attainability of the hope measures, or may measure, the civilization of his nation and time  (Civilization Quotes)
