Everything around a writer, or musician in the record business, probably everything in all the United States or in all of western civilization, is about competition. (Civilization Quotes)
Creative accounting is an absolute curse to a civilization. One could argue that double-entry bookkeeping was one of history’s great advances. Using accounting for fraud and folly is a disgrace. In a democracy, it often takes a scandal to trigger reform. Enron was the most obvious example of a business culture gone wrong in a long, long time. (Civilization Quotes)
It is the business of future to be dangerous.... The major advances in civilization are processes that all but wreck the societies in which they occur. (Civilization Quotes)
Martin Luther King said it was time to inject a new dimension of love into the veins of human civilization. I don’t think anyone is calling Martin Luther King a New Age woo-woo. (Civilization Quotes)
Private enterprise in the history of civilization has never led large, expensive, dangerous projects with unknown risks. That has never happened because when you combine all these factors, you cannot create a capital market valuation of that activity. (Civilization Quotes)
Ants can live together in solidarity and forget themselves in the community. In a normative capitalist society, everyone is an egoist. In the ants’ civilization, you are part of the group; you don’t live for yourself alone. (Civilization Quotes)
The university system, a gift of Western civilization to the world, was developed by the Catholic Church. (Civilization Quotes)
Violent drama has been a hallmark of every great civilization. It is not the cause of the disease - it is an immunizing factor. People go to the theater to experience emotions like fear and loathing. Violent drama shows us where we come from. It makes us face our hypocrisy. (Civilization Quotes)
Every civilization sees itself as the center of the world and writes its history as the central drama of human history. (Civilization Quotes)
The great enemy of any attempt to change men’s habits is inertia. Civilization is limited by intertia. (Civilization Quotes)
The subtle and deadly change of heart that might occur in you would be involved with the realization that a civilization is not destroyed by wicked people; it is not necessary that people be wicked but only that they be spineless. (Civilization Quotes)
I have not changed my opinion that the Holocaust is a trauma of European civilization (Civilization Quotes)
There’s never been a civilization, ever in history, that has embraced homosexuality and turned away from traditional fidelity and traditional marriage, traditional child rearing, and has survived. (Civilization Quotes)
Rules governing defecation, hygiene, and pollution exist in every culture at every period in history. It may in fact be the foundation of civilization: What is toilet training if not the first attempt to turn a child into an acceptable member of society? (Civilization Quotes)
My argument is simple, which is, that for several thousand years in Western civilization, marriage has been the union of one man and one woman. Research is overwhelming that children need mothers and fathers. (Civilization Quotes)
I am convinced that not only do children need children’s books to fine-tune their brains, but our civilization needs them if we are not going to unplug ourselves from our collective past. (Civilization Quotes)
I think really, China, Chinese, I think they really have a long history of civilization, rich culture. (Civilization Quotes)
China, with her five thousand years of history, her vast territory and her enormous population stands like a mountain peak among the nations of the world. Her contribution to the civilization of mankind is imperishable. She has been a keen lover of peace; she has had a deep respect for international justice. (Civilization Quotes)
Style is about the choices you make to create the aspects of civilization that you wish to uphold (Civilization Quotes)
Internationalism is a community theory of society which is founded on economic, spiritual, and biological facts. It maintains that respect for a healthy development of human society and of world civilization requires that mankind be organized internationally. (Civilization Quotes)
The roots of India’s soft power run deep. India’s is a civilization that, over millennia, has offered refuge and, more importantly, religious and cultural freedom, to Jews, Parsis, several varieties of Christians, and Muslims. (Civilization Quotes)
It is still an act of academic heresy to regard Egypt as the cradle of civilization and originator of Jewish and Christian religious traditions. (Civilization Quotes)
Though I do regard the Inquisition in general and the burning of Giordano Bruno in particular as blots on the history of the Roman Catholic Church, I am far from being actuated by hatred of that church, and in fact cannot imagine that European civilization would have developed or survived without it. (Civilization Quotes)
Capitalism inevitably and by virtue of the very logic of its civilization creates, educates and subsidizes a vested interest in social unrest. (Civilization Quotes)
The poet Melvin B. Tolson once said, ‘A civilization is judged only in its decline.’ That made sense to me. I would imagine the same is true for poets and tennis players. (Civilization Quotes)
A great deal of stupidity has chipped away at the massive advantages of Western civilization, which could terminally decline if it remains on the current path. But these problems can be solved - and swiftly - if the right leaders emerge. (Civilization Quotes)
For all the tribulations in our lives, for all the troubles that remain in the world, the decline of violence is an accomplishment that we can savor - and an impetus to cherish the forces of civilization and enlightenment that made it possible. (Civilization Quotes)
While I have no empirical evidence to back this up, I bet that the number of homosexual people per thousand has not fluctuated all that much over the centuries. I do not believe the dented wisdom my father used to extol, that homosexuality was a sure sign of a civilization in decline. (Civilization Quotes)
I do believe that the future of civilization belongs to those who would lay emphasis on working together instead of talking about clash of civilizations. (Civilization Quotes)
