Roving dogs do not indicate the civilisation or compassion of the society. They betray on the country the ignorance and lethargy of its members (Vili Quotes)
Civilization is first of all a moral thing. Without truth, respect for duty, love of neighbor, and virtue, everything is destroyed. The morality of a society is alone the basis of civilization (Vili Quotes)
A race preserves its vigor so long as it harbors a real contrast between what has been and what may be; and so long as it is nerved by the vigor to adventure beyond the safeties of the past. Without adventure civilization is in full decay (Vili Quotes)
In any civilized society, it is every citizen’s responsibility to obey just laws. But at the same time, it is every citizen’s responsibility to disobey unjust laws (Vili Quotes)
Nearly all great civilizations that perished did so because they had crystallized, because they were incapable of adapting themselves to new conditions, new methods, new points of view. It is as though people would rather die than change (Vili Quotes)

The future of our civilisation depends upon the widening spread and deepening hold of the scientific habit of mind (Vili Quotes)
The different religions have never overlooked the part played by the sense of guilt in civilization. What is more, they come forward with a claim... to save mankind from this sense of guilt, which they call sin (Vili Quotes)
With all my heart I believe that the world’s present system of sovereign nations can only lead to barbarism, war and inhumanity, and that only world law can assure progress towards a civilized peaceful community (Vili Quotes)
The foundations of civilization are no stronger and no more enduring than the corporate integrity of the homes on which they rest. If the home deteriorates, civilization will crumble and fall (Vili Quotes)

The price we pay for our advance in civilization is a loss of happiness through the heightening of the sense of guilt (Vili Quotes)
