Text Quotes
Human nature is, by definition, a talkative one, imprudent, indiscreet, gossipy, incapable of closing it's mouth and keeping it closed  (Human Nature Quotes) The enemy of art is the enemy of nature; art is nothing but the highest sagacity and exertions of human nature; and what nature will he honor who honors not the human?  (Human Nature Quotes) The center of human nature is rooted in ten thousand ordinary acts of kindness that define our days  (Human Nature Quotes) No real teacher can doubt that his task is to assist his pupil to fulfill human nature against all the deforming forces of convention and prejudice  (Human Nature Quotes) Christ is the Word of God in person. The Bible is the Word of God in writing. Both are the Word of God in the words of men. Both have a human nature and a divine nature  (Human Nature Quotes) The imputation of being a fool is a thing which mankind, of all others, is the most impatient of, it being a blot upon the prime and specific perfection of human nature  (Human Nature Quotes) Reason is the glory of human nature, and one of the chief eminences whereby we are raised above the beasts, in this lower world  (Human Nature Quotes) We all want to judge; it’s an intrinsic part of our society and human nature. I’m not surprised that talent shows are hits, but I’m glad some of them aren’t so brutal  (Human Nature Quotes) The Utopians feel that slaughtering our fellow creatures gradually destroys the sense of compassion, which is the finest sentiment of which our human nature is capable  (Human Nature Quotes) Human nature is so constituted, that all see and judge better in the affairs of other men than in their own  (Human Nature Quotes) We suffer not from overproduction but from undercirculation. You have heard of technocracy. I wish I had those fellows for my competitors. I’d like to take the automobile it is said they predicted could be made now that would last fifty years. Even if never used, this automobile would not be worth anything except to a junkman in ten years, because of the changes in men’s tastes and ideas. This desire for change is an inherent quality in human nature, so that the present generation must not try to crystallize the needs of the future ones  (Human Nature Quotes) The point of departure of the process to which we wish to contribute is the fact that war is the natural reaction of human nature in the savage state, while peace is the result of acquired characteristics  (Human Nature Quotes) There is something mean in human nature that prefers to think evil, that gives a willing ear and a ready welcome to calumny, a sort of jealousy of goodness and greatness and things of good report  (Human Nature Quotes) A civilization without retail bookstores is unimaginable. Like shrines and other sacred meeting places, bookstores are essential artifacts of human nature. The feel of a book taken from the shelf and held in the hand is a magical experience, linking writer to reader  (Human Nature Quotes) All the great novels, all the great films, all the great dramas are fictions that actually tell us the truth about us or about human nature or about human situations without being tied into the minutia of documentary events. Otherwise we might as well just make documentaries  (Human Nature Quotes) It’s human nature to keep doing something as long as it’s pleasurable and you can succeed at it, which is why the world population continues to double every 40 years  (Human Nature Quotes) To be enthusiastic about doing much with human nature is a foolish business indeed; and, throwing himself into his work as he was doing, and expecting so much from it, would not the tide ebb as strongly as it was flowing? It is a rash game this setting our hearts on any future beyond what we have our own selves control over. Things do not walk as we settle with ourselves they ought to walk, and to hope is almost the correlative of to be disappointed  (Human Nature Quotes) Human nature, if healthy, demands excitement; and if it does not obtain its thrilling excitement in the right way, it will seek it in the wrong. God never makes bloodless stoics; He makes no passionless saints  (Human Nature Quotes) The defects of human nature afford us opportunities of exercising our philosophy, the best employment of our virtues. If all men were righteous, all hearts true and frank and loyal, what use would our virtues be?  (Human Nature Quotes) The dictum that human nature cannot be changed is one of those tiresome platitudes that conceal from the ignorant the depths of their own ignorance  (Human Nature Quotes) The strongest argument against totalitarianism may be a recognition of a universal human nature; that all humans have innate desires for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. The doctrine of the blank slate... is a totalitarian’s dream  (Human Nature Quotes) As every inquiry which regards religion is of the utmost importance, there are two questions in particular which challenge our attention, to wit, that concerning its foundation in reason, and that concerning it origin in human nature  (Human Nature Quotes) Most men unconsciously judge the world from themselves, and it will be very generally found that those who sneer habitually at human nature, and affect to despise it, are among its worst and least pleasant samples  (Human Nature Quotes) Invention is the most important product of man’s creative brain. The ultimate purpose is the complete mastery of mind over the material world, the harnessing of human nature to human needs  (Human Nature Quotes) Perhaps it is only human nature to inflict suffering on anything that will endure suffering, whether by reason of its genuine humility, or indifference, or sheer helplessness  (Human Nature Quotes) I will smile at friend and foe alike and make every effort to find, in him or her, a quality to praise, now that I realize the deepest yearning of human nature is the craving to be appreciated  (Human Nature Quotes) Slavery is such an atrocious debasement of human nature, that its very extirpation, if not performed with solicitous care, may sometimes open a source of serious evils  (Human Nature Quotes) Human nature, essentially changeable, as unstable as the dust, can endure no restraint; if it binds itself it soon begins to tear madly at its bonds, until it rends everything asunder, the wall, the bonds, and its very self  (Human Nature Quotes) Lasting fulfillment is attained only through gaining insight into the core of our human nature, unleashing the power to understand, appreciate, and enjoy our lives at the deepest level  (Human Nature Quotes) The cynic about human nature might say that religious morality is an effective way of keeping people in line. The threat of hell, the reward of heaven, but the rules of the holy books are out of date and often barbaric  (Human Nature Quotes)
