Society Quotes

Blaming society makes it awfully easy for a person of weak character to shrug off his own responsibility for his actions Picture Quote #1

The reality is that in much of industrialized societies, we are completely addicted to comfort. We are a society of addicts Picture Quote #1

Make a list of your friends and determine who is the most positive thinker among them and deliberately cultivate his society Picture Quote #1

The contagion of crime is like that of the plague. Criminals collected together corrupt each other. They are worse than ever when, at the termination of their punishment, they return to society Picture Quote #1

I think we are warranted in contending that a society thus constituted, and which may be rendered so admirable an engine of improvement, far from meriting reproach, deserves highly of the community Picture Quote #1

There may be many who will gladly face death in the battlefield, but few who will face a hostile society Picture Quote #1

For the first time, we live in a society that shows any sign of the possibility of women changing this condition Picture Quote #1

Probably the most pervasive false belief most of us harbor is the fallacy that only some superhuman act would have the power to turn our problems around. Nothing could be further from the truth. Life is cumulative. Whatever results we’re experiencing in our lives are the accumulation of a host of small decisions we’ve made as individuals, as a family, as a community, as a society, and as a species Picture Quote #1

You don’t have to be the smartest person to become successful and wealthy. Many of the most successful and wealthy people in society are not the most educated people Picture Quote #1

We are always getting ready to live, but never living... The wave moves onward but the particles of which it is composed do not... It cannot be but that at intervals throughout society there are real men intermixed... as the carpenter puts one iron bar in his bannister for every five or six wooden ones Picture Quote #1

I went to university with no money. I can’t understand a society that wouldn’t give a poor person the same opportunity as a rich person Picture Quote #1

If you get married, you lose all your benefits. That’s insane! We should give people bonuses for getting married, and sending signals and talking about it to the society Picture Quote #1

As a society, we’ve become terrified of failure, but you can’t grow without risking it Picture Quote #1

Our beliefs about ourselves in relation to the world around us are the roots of our values, and our values determine not only our immediate actions, but also, over the course of time, the form of our society. Our beliefs are increasingly determined by science. Hence it is at least conceivable that what science has been telling us for three hundred years about man and his place in nature could be playing by now an important role in our lives Picture Quote #1

When someone else’s safety and acceptance in society is on the line, your personal discomfort comes in a very distant second Picture Quote #1

For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society, saying to our citizens: as long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone Picture Quote #1

In capitalist society we have a democracy that is curtailed, wretched, false, a democracy only for the rich, for the minority. The dictatorship of the proletariat, the period of transition to communism, will for the first time create democracy for the people, for the majority, along with the necessary suppression of the exploiters, of the minority Picture Quote #1

The idea of changing or improving the world is alien to me and seems ludicrous. Society functions, and always has, without the artist. No artist has ever changed anything for better or worse Picture Quote #1

The most important eugenic policy at this time is to see that birth control is made equally available to all individuals in every class of society Picture Quote #1

We live in an ironic society where even play is turned into work. But the highest existence is not work; the highest level of existence is play Picture Quote #1

Income inequality has no necessary connection with poverty, the lack of material resources for a decent life, such as adequate food, shelter, and clothing. A society with great income inequality may have no poor people, and a society with no income inequality may have nothing but poor people Picture Quote #1

Market society is a game where you win by making sure other people are better off with you than without you Picture Quote #1

Every thing useful and beneficial to man, seems to be connected with obedience to the laws of his nature, the inclinations, the duties, and the happiness of individuals, resolve themselves into customs and habits, favorable, in the highest degree, to society. In no case is this more apparent, than in the customs of nations respecting marriage Picture Quote #1

I’m sure everyone feels sorry for the individual who has fallen by the wayside or who can’t keep up in our competitive society, but my own compassion goes beyond that to those millions of unsung men and women, who get up every morning, send the kids to school, go to work, try to keep up the payments on their house, pay exorbitant taxes to make possible compassion for the less fortunate, and as a result have to sacrifice many of their own desires and dreams and hopes. Government owes them something better than always finding a new way to make them share the fruit of their toils with others Picture Quote #1

It is not enough for me to stand before you tonight and condemn riots. It would be morally irresponsible for me to do that without, at the same time, condemning the contingent, intolerable conditions that exist in our society. These conditions are the things that cause individuals to feel that they have no other alternative than to engage in violent rebellions to get attention. And I must say tonight that a riot is the language of the unheard Picture Quote #1

If photographers are responsible for creating or reflecting an image of women in society, then I must say, there is only one way for the future, and this is to define women as strong and independent. This should be the responsibility of photographers today: to free women, and finally everyone, from the terror of youth and perfection Picture Quote #1

In a society where dirt sells, for every good story told as it is, you will hear the whole of that day’s 10 bad stories sensationalized; although in reality, it could be that 100 good deeds happened that day which went unsung Picture Quote #1

Society tells me to follow my own truth, but I don’t let society tell me what to do. If you need someone to tell you that, chances are you’re part of the crowd that will move on to the next fashion that comes around Picture Quote #1

Oftentimes in a society when people of a certain type, whether individual or a group, are subconsciously portrayed by the media as abnormal, they also slowly, subconsciously become enemies of that society due to feelings of cultural guilt. Ultimately by this the inflated media is an enemy of its very own cause Picture Quote #1

We live in a society where manhood is all about conquering and violence. And what we don’t realize is that ultimately that kind of manhood ultimately kills you Picture Quote #1
