Text Quotes
That which we call civilization is merely the accumulated debris of a chilling number of bad nights  (Vili Quotes) The saddest object in civilization, and to my mind the greatest confession of its failure, is the man who can work, who wants work, and who is not allowed to work  (Vili Quotes) It is always the moralists who do the most harm. Abortion is the logical outcome of civilization, only the jungle gives birth and moulders away as nature decrees. Man plans  (Vili Quotes) In my mind nothing is more abhorrent than a life of ease. None of us has any right to ease. There is no place in civilization for the idler  (Vili Quotes) Were civilization itself to be estimated by some of its results, it would seem perhaps better for what we call the barbarous part of the world to remain unchanged  (Vili Quotes) A common civility to an impertinent fellow, often draws upon one a great many unforeseen troubles; and if one doth not take particular care, will be interpreted by him as an overture of friendship and intimacy  (Vili Quotes) It is in vain for us to devise schemes by which competition can be put out of civilized life. Competition is the condition of life  (Vili Quotes) Our civilization... is not devaluing its awareness of the unknowable; nor is it deifying it. It is the first civilization that has severed it from religion and superstition. In order to question it  (Vili Quotes) A civilization is a social entity that manifests religious, political, legal, and customary uniformity over an extended period, and which confers on its members the benefits of socially accumulated knowledge  (Vili Quotes) Anybody who knows something about the history of the human race knows that there is no civilization which has condoned homosexual marriage widely and openly that has long survived  (Vili Quotes) India is a civilization where the principle and philosophy of sacrifice is ingrained as part of our upbringing  (Vili Quotes) My mission is to lead the country out of a bad situation of corruption, depression and slavery. After I rid the country of these vices, I will then organize and supervise a general election of a genuinely democratic civilian government  (Vili Quotes) A civilization is complicated, in the first place, because it is dynamic; that is, it is constantly changing in the passage of time, until it has perished  (Vili Quotes) It is clear that every civilization undergoes a process of historical change. We can see that a civilization comes into existence, passes through a long experience, and eventually goes out of existence  (Vili Quotes) The process by which civilization, as an abstract entity distinct from the societies in which it is embodied, dies or is reborn is a very significant one  (Vili Quotes) War has been with us ever since the dawn of civilization. Nothing has been more constant in history than war  (Vili Quotes) All of us are already civilian soldiers, without knowing it...The great stroke of luck for the military class’s terrorism is that no one recognizes it. People don’t recognize the militarized part of their identity, of their consciousness  (Vili Quotes) The bicameral mind with its controlling gods was evolved as a final stage of the evolution of language. And in this development lies the origin of civilization  (Vili Quotes) People talk about smart sanctions and crippling sanctions. Ive never seen smart sanctions, and crippling sanctions cripple everyone, including innocent civilians, and make the government more popular  (Vili Quotes) The greatest threat to mankind and civilization is the spread of the totalitarian philosophy. Its best ally is not the devotion of its followers but the confusion of its enemies. To fight it, we must understand it  (Vili Quotes) Wherever we look, the work of the chemist has raised the level of our civilization and has increased the productive capacity of the nation  (Vili Quotes) I find it ironic to read stories about myself which have never occurred and are simply so absurd that they are comical. At other times, it is very painful to be so misinterpreted and vilified  (Vili Quotes) The timid civilized world has found nothing with which to oppose the onslaught of a sudden revival of barefaced barbarity, other than concessions and smiles  (Vili Quotes) Economics is important because it’s possible to buy the places that are necessary to live in relative inaccessibility and seclusion, or to move with a bit of style and chicness into the middle of civilization  (Vili Quotes) The doctrine of a material hell in its effect was to chill and deaden the sympathies, predispose men to inflict suffering, and to retard the march of civilization  (Vili Quotes) All history shows that, in exact proportion as nations advance in civilisation, the accounts of miracles taking place among them become rarer and rarer, until at last they entirely cease  (Vili Quotes) In a free society, we will tolerate boorish people, who have abhorrent behavior, but if we’re civilized people, we publicly criticize that, and don’t belong to those groups, or don’t associate with those people  (Vili Quotes) A legitimate democracy cannot act against a terror organization because it is using civilians as a human shield, and therefore it should absorb attacks on its own civilians  (Vili Quotes) There really are three types of religious movies: the ones that make fun of it, the ones that vilify it and the ones that literally preach to the converted  (Vili Quotes) By challenging anthropocentricism and temporal provincialism, science fiction throws open the whole of civilization and its premises to constructive criticism  (Vili Quotes)
