Text Quotes
An old Spanish writer says, to return evil for good is devilish; to return good for good is human; but to return good for evil is godlike  (Vili Quotes) I was shaped by the west and have lived most of my life in it, and nothing would gratify me more than to see it in all its subregions and subcultures both prosperous and environmentally healthy, with a civilization to match its scenery  (Vili Quotes) You’ve got to forget about this civilian. Whenever you drop bombs, you’re going to hit civilians  (Vili Quotes) From India to Spain, the brilliant civilization of Islam flourished.

Who knows whether the same fate does not await our own?  (Vili Quotes) I believe that what we are fighting here is not just a small group of people who have hijacked a religion, but it is a civilization bent on destroying ours  (Vili Quotes) I have increasingly, over the years, felt that religion today does our civilization more harm than good  (Vili Quotes) I’ve been thinking about the distorted view of science that prevails in our culture. I’ve been wondering about this, because our civilization is completely dependent on science and high technology, yet most of us are alienated from science  (Vili Quotes) There is no privacy that cannot be penetrated. No secret can be kept in the civilized world. Society is a masked ball where everyone hides his real character, then reveals it by hiding  (Vili Quotes) It is commonly said and known that each civilization has its own religion. Now my claim is that if we look deeper, the different civilizations were brought into being by the different revelations  (Vili Quotes) Modern technology has become a total phenomenon for civilization, the defining force of a new social order in which efficiency is no longer an option but a necessity imposed on all human activity  (Vili Quotes) Nothing is more useless in developing a nation’s economy than a gun, and nothing blocks the road to social development more than the financial burden of war. War is the arch enemy of national progress and the modern scourge of civilized man  (Vili Quotes) Our civilization has evolved through the continuous adjustment of society to the stimulus of new knowledge  (Vili Quotes) Our civilization is now in the transition stage between the age of warring empires and a new age of world unity and peace  (Vili Quotes) Our guiding principle was that design is neither an intellectual nor a material affair, but simply an integral part of the stuff of life, necessary for everyone in a civilized society  (Vili Quotes) Roman civilization had achieved, within the bounds of its technology, relatively as great a mastery of time and space as we have achieved today  (Vili Quotes) The age in which we live can only be characterized as one of barbarism. Our civilization is in the process not only of being militarized, but also being brutalized  (Vili Quotes) The limitation upon this mode of promoting peace lies in the fact that it consists in an appeal to the civilized side of man, while war is the product of forces proceeding from man’s original savage nature  (Vili Quotes) The mark of a truly civilized man is confidence in the strength and security derived from the inquiring mind  (Vili Quotes) The more equality women have, the fairer, more civilized and tolerant society will be. Sexual equality is a lot more effective against terrorism than military strength  (Vili Quotes) There was an age, however, when the transition from savagery to civilization, with all its impressive outward manifestations in art and architecture, took place for the first time  (Vili Quotes) Thousands of years and many civilizations have defined a marriage as the union between one man and one woman. With few exceptions, those civilizations that did not follow that perished  (Vili Quotes) Thus, it was to seek true civilization and true justice for all the peoples of the world, and to view this as the destruction of personal freedom and respect is to be assailed by the hatred and emotion of war, and to make hasty judgments  (Vili Quotes) To deal with the true causes of war one must begin by recognizing as of prime relevancy to the solution of the problem the familiar fact that civilization is a partial, incomplete, and, to a great extent, superficial modification of barbarism  (Vili Quotes) To make the moral achievement implicit in science a source of strength to civilization, the scientist will have to have the cooperation also of the philosopher and the religious teacher  (Vili Quotes)
