Text Quotes
There is no evil in human affairs that has not some good mingled with it (Human Affairs Quotes)
Public opinion shapes our destinies and guides the progress of human affairs (Human Affairs Quotes)
There is something in sorrow more akin to the course of human affairs than joy (Human Affairs Quotes)
Surely human affairs would be far happier if the power in men to be silent were the same as that to speak. But experience more than sufficiently teaches that men govern nothing with more difficulty than their tongues, and can moderate their desires more easily than their words (Human Affairs Quotes)
To make of human affairs a coherent, precise, predictable whole one must ignore or suppress man as he really is. It is by eliminating man from their equation that the makers of history can predict the future, and the writers of history can give a pattern to the past (Human Affairs Quotes)
In human affairs every solution serves only to sharpen the problem, to show us more clearly what we are up against. There are no final solutions (Human Affairs Quotes)
In physics the truth is rarely perfectly clear, and that is certainly universally the case in human affairs. Hence, what is not surrounded by uncertainty cannot be the truth (Human Affairs Quotes)
Nothing appears more surprising to those, who consider human affairs with a philosophical eye, than the easiness with which the many are governed by the few; and the implicit submission, with which men resign their own sentiments and passions to those of their rulers (Human Affairs Quotes)
It is a misfortune, inseparable from human affairs, that public measures are rarely investigated with that spirit of moderation which is essential to a just estimate of their real tendency to advance or obstruct the public good; and that this spirit is more apt to be diminished than prompted, by those occasions which require an unusual exercise of it (Human Affairs Quotes)
A government of our own is our natural right; and when a man seriously reflects on the precariousness of human affairs, he will become convinced, that it is infinitely wiser and safer, to form a constitution of our own in a cool deliberate manner, while we have it in our power, than to trust such an interesting event to time and chance (Human Affairs Quotes)
Constitutions of civil government are not to be framed upon a calculation of existing exigencies, but upon a combination of these with the probable exigencies of ages, according to the natural and tried course of human affairs. Nothing, therefore, can be more fallacious than to infer the extent of any power, proper to be lodged in the national government, from an estimate of its immediate necessities (Human Affairs Quotes)
However much we talk of the inexorable laws governing the life of individuals and of societies, we remain at the bottom convinced that in human affairs everything in more or less fortuitous. We do not even believe in the inevitability of our own death. Hence the difficulty of deciphering the present, of detecting the seeds of things to come as they germinate before our eyes. We are not attuned to seeing the inevitable (Human Affairs Quotes)
I believe that pipe smoking contributes to a somewhat calm and objective judgement in all human affairs (Human Affairs Quotes)
Everybody felt his superiority, but nobody felt oppressed by it. Though he had no illusions about people and human affairs, he was full of kindness toward everybody and everything. Never did he give the impression of domineering, always of serving and helping. He was extremely conscientious, without allowing anything to assume undue importance; a subtle humor guarded him, which was reflected in his eyes and in his smile (Human Affairs Quotes)
In human affairs, we accomplish everything through prayer. What has been properly arranged, we keep in order, what has gone amiss we improve or change, what we cannot change and improve we bear, overcoming all trouble and sustaining all by prayer. Against such forces there is no help but prayer (Human Affairs Quotes)
Were the judgments of mankind correct, custom would be regulated by the good. But it is often far otherwise in point of fact; for, whatever the many are seen to do, forthwith obtains the force of custom. But human affairs have scarcely ever been so happily constituted as that the better course pleased the greater number. Hence the private vices of the multitude have generally resulted in public error, or rather that common consent in vice which these worthy men would have to be law (Human Affairs Quotes)
A man who is trying sincerely to disentangle the web of human affairs is greatly helped by the nearness of a woman’s mind, vigilant, clever, discreet, lucid, which lights up that shadowy half of his world: women’s thoughts (Human Affairs Quotes)
... Things that people learn purely out of curiosity can have a revolutionary effect on human affairs (Human Affairs Quotes)
It is still an unending source of surprise for me to see how a few scribbles on a blackboard or on a sheet of paper could change the course of human affairs (Human Affairs Quotes)
Remember that there is nothing stable in human affairs; therefore avoid undue elation in prosperity, or undue depression in adversity (Human Affairs Quotes)
I believe that pipe smoking contributes to a somewhat calm and objective judgment in all human affairs (Human Affairs Quotes)
This provision is made in a constitution intended to endure for ages to come, and, consequently, to be adapted to the various crises of human affairs (Human Affairs Quotes)
I have come to know that the miracle rarely happens in human affairs; lazarus is uncured and bleeds from his sores (Human Affairs Quotes)
In all crises of human affairs there are two broad courses open to a man. He can stay where he is or he can go elsewhere (Human Affairs Quotes)
There is a kind of intellectual provincialism in the dogma that life is just one damned thing after another... Human affairs do not become intelligible until they are seen as a whole (Human Affairs Quotes)
All political lives, unless they are cut off in midstream at a happy juncture, end in failure, because that is the nature of politics and of human affairs (Human Affairs Quotes)
Kindness is not an illusion and violence is not a rule. The true resting state of human affairs is not represented by a man hacking his neighbor into pieces with a machete. That is a sick aberration. No, the true state of human affairs is life as it ought to be lived (Human Affairs Quotes)
Even intellectuals should have learned by now that objective rationality is not the default position of the human mind, much less the bedrock of human affairs (Human Affairs Quotes)
Maybe we’ll live to see sharks recover. Right now, that seems as improbable as seeing all these falcons. Hope is the ability to see how things could be better. The world of human affairs has long been a shadowy place, but always backlit by the light of hope. Each person can add hope to the world. A resigned person subtracts hope. The more people strive, the more change becomes likely (Human Affairs Quotes)
It is more important to know where you are going than to get there quickly. Do not mistake activity for achievement. Remember that there is nothing stable in human affairs, therefore avoid undue elation in prosperity or undue depression in adversity (Human Affairs Quotes)
