Enlightened Society Quotes

This could never be a crime in any society which deems himself enlightened Picture Quote #1

The remedy for speech that is false is speech that is true. This is the ordinary course in a free society. The response to the unreasoned is the rational; to the uninformed, the enlightened; to the straight-out lie, the simple truth Picture Quote #1

Language, the machine of the poet, is best fitted for his purpose in its rudest state. Nations, like individuals, first perceive, and then abstract. They advance from particular images to general terms. Hence the vocabulary of an enlightened society is philosophical, that of a half-civilized people is poetical Picture Quote #1

The great tragedy is that they’re removing art completely, not because they’re putting more science in, but because they can’t afford the art teachers or because somebody thinks it’s not useful. An enlightened society has all of this going on within it. It’s part of what distinguishes what it is to be human from other life forms on Earth - that we have culture Picture Quote #1

Art is a necessity - an essential part of our enlightenment process. We cannot, as a civilized society, regard ourselves as being enlightened without the arts Picture Quote #1

Enlightened Society is all about nurturing the human spirit - waking up to the goodness, kindness and strength that we already have Picture Quote #1

Women make up one half of society. Our society will remain backward and in chains unless its women are liberated, enlightened and educated Picture Quote #1

I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them but to inform their discretion Picture Quote #1

Shambhala vision is universal. It has no bias towards one type of culture or group. It is not ethnocentric and does not encourage one specific kind of person, race, or religion. Shambhala vision promotes a universality in relationship to basic goodness. All human beings are basically good and an enlightened society, at various levels of manifestation, can occur in any culture Picture Quote #1

In an unenlightened society some people are forced to play degrading social roles; in an enlightened society, everyone is Picture Quote #1
