Flattery is a challenge. The proper turning away from it, undercutting, diminishing it without offense or vehemence, is a social grace sweeter even than the swift determination to keep ahead in the race of hospitality Picture Quote #1

Think of a dinner party as a club of revolutionaries, a technocratic elite whose social interactions that night are a dry run for some future takeover of the state Picture Quote #1

False principles, which correspond with the bad as well as with the just aspirations of mankind, are a normal and necessary element in the social life of nations Picture Quote #1

One great flaw in the reforming passion is that in its eagerness to remedy social wrongs it tends to neglect, certainly to undervalue, the experience of those whose lives it wishes to improve Picture Quote #1

Every social war is a battle between the very few on both sides who care and who fire their shots across a crowd of spectators Picture Quote #1

The quality of life, which in the ardour of spring was personal and sexual, becomes social in midsummer Picture Quote #1

People become less inhibited from wanting to change social and economic conditions in a radical fashion according to their own interests, and from being prepared to think of state intervention in ever wider spheres as possible and useful for this purpose Picture Quote #1

Fiction supplies the only philosophy that may readers know; it establishes their ethical, social, and material standards; it confirms them in their prejudices or opens their minds to a wider world Picture Quote #1

Those of our writers who have possessed a vivid personal talent have been paralyzed by a want of social background Picture Quote #1

Man’s characteristic privilege is that the bond he accepts is not physical but moral; that is, social. He is governed not by a material environment brutally imposed on him, but by a conscience superior to his own, the superiority of which he feels. Because the greater, better part of his existence transcends the body, he escapes the body’s yoke, but is subject to that of society Picture Quote #1

I’m not afraid of death but I am afraid of dying. Pain can be alleviated by morphine but the pain of social ostracism cannot be taken away Picture Quote #1

Although the connections are not always obvious, personal change is inseparable from social and political change Picture Quote #1

I hope to leave my children a sense of empathy and pity and a will to right social wrongs Picture Quote #1

Men must be capable of imagining and executing and insisting on social change if they are to reform or even maintain civilization, and capable too of furnishing the rebellion which is sometimes necessary if society is not to perish of immobility Picture Quote #1

English literature is a kind of training in social ethics. English trains you to handle a body of information in a way that is conducive to action Picture Quote #1

I is a militant social tendency, working to hold and enlarge its place in the general current of tendencies. So far as it can it waxes, as all life does. To think of it as apart from society is a palpable absurdity of which no one could be guilty who really saw it as a fact of life Picture Quote #1

To act the part of a true friend requires more conscientious feeling than to fill with credit and complacency any other station or capacity in social life Picture Quote #1

Almsgiving tends to perpetuate poverty; aid does away with it once and for all. Almsgiving leaves a man just where he was before. Aid restores him to society as an individual worthy of all respect and not as a man with a grievance. Almsgiving is the generosity of the rich; social aid levels up social inequalities. Charity separates the rich from the poor; aid raises the needy and sets him on the same level with the rich Picture Quote #1

We show wisdom by a decent conformity to social etiquette; it is excess of neatness or display that creates dandyism in men, and coquetry in women Picture Quote #1

For every social wrong there must be a remedy. But the remedy can be nothing less than the abolition of the wrong Picture Quote #1

Tokenism does not change stereotypes of social systems but works to preserve them, since it dulls the revolutionary impulse Picture Quote #1

I believe we have become paralyzed, paralyzed by our desire to be loved. Now our founding fathers had the wisdom to know that social acceptance and popularity were fleeing, and that this country’s principles needed to be rooted in strengths greater than the passions and the emotions of the times Picture Quote #1

I deeply detest social distinction and snobbery, and in that lies my strong aversion to titular honours Picture Quote #1

Football has an important role to play in society. Players should have a sense of social responsibility, have a moral dimension to them which shows up in good conduct Picture Quote #1

It’s critical that children spend time before they arrive in school in a warm, attractive and inclusive environment, where they can learn through play, master social skills and prepare for formal schooling Picture Quote #1

I would never talk just to be social. Now, to sit down with a bunch of engineers and talk about the latest concrete forming systems, that’s really interesting. Talking with animal behaviorists or with someone who likes to sail, that’s interesting. Information is interesting to me. But talking for the sake of talking, I find that quite boring Picture Quote #1

I think that autistic brains tend to be specialized brains. Autistic people tend to be less social. It takes a ton of processor space in the brain to have all the social circuits Picture Quote #1

Soccer isn’t very social. Plus, if you don’t like someone on the other team, you can do something about it Picture Quote #1

I’m naturally shy, so the social media thing is new to me. I haven’t really figured out how my voice sounds on social media, you know? I don’t want to tweet everyday just for the sake of tweeting. I want to make sure whatever I do there is honest. Social media can very quickly get fake, and I don’t want to be that guy Picture Quote #1

I grew up in a world where the social democratic state was the norm, not the exception Picture Quote #1
