Text Quotes
Spiritual awakening is the most essential thing in man’s life, and it is the sole purpose of being. Is not civilization, in all its tragic forms, a supreme motive for spiritual awakening?  (Vili Quotes) Civilization runs a greater risk if we maintain our present attitude to religion than if we give it up  (Vili Quotes) A general definition of civilization: a civilized society is exhibiting the fine qualities of truth, beauty, adventure, art, peace  (Vili Quotes) Simple practices like conscious breathing and smiling are very important. They can change our civilization  (Vili Quotes) A world government with powers adequate to guarantee security is not a remote ideal for the distant future. It is an urgent necessity if our civilization is to survive  (Vili Quotes) While the farmer holds the title to the land, actually, it belongs to all the people because civilization itself rests upon the soil  (Vili Quotes) Cruelty practiced as a matter of social principle or public policy, and presented to the community as a means to a higher goal is the most obscene and decadent phenomenon of any civilization  (Vili Quotes) I have always believed and still believe that artists who live and work with spiritual values cannot and should not remain indifferent to the conflict in which the highest values of humanity and civilization are at stake  (Vili Quotes) In civilizations without boats, dreams dry up, espionage takes the place of adventure and the police take the place of pirates  (Vili Quotes) You may as well know, also, that every great leader, from the dawn of civilization down to the present, was a dreamer  (Vili Quotes) A first class system of early childhood education is the hallmark of a caring and civilized society  (Vili Quotes) The worship of the state is the worship of force. There is no more dangerous menace to civilization than a government of incompetent, corrupt, or vile men. The worst evils which mankind ever had to endure were inflicted by governments  (Vili Quotes) The differences between people need not act as barriers that wound, harm and drive us apart. Rather, these very differences among cultures and civilizations should be valued as manifestations of the richness of our shared creativity  (Vili Quotes) Freemasonry is an institution founded on eternal reason and truth; whose deep basis is the civilization of mankind, and whose everlasting glory it is to have the immovable support of those two mighty pillars, science and morality  (Vili Quotes) Just as the natural environment depends on biodiversity, so the human environment depends on cultural diversity, because no one civilization encompasses all the spiritual, ethical and artistic expressions of mankind  (Vili Quotes) Truth is the mother of joy. Truth civilizes, ennobles and purifies. The grandest ambition that can enter the soul is to know the truth  (Vili Quotes) I prefer the company of animals more than the company of humans. Certainly, a wild animal is cruel. But to be merciless is the privilege of civilized humans  (Vili Quotes) Emotions are the fuel and the mind is the pilot which together propel the ship of civilized progress  (Vili Quotes) The only very marked difference between the average civilized man and the average savage is that the one is gilded and the other is painted  (Vili Quotes) There is a great difference between feeding parties to wild beasts and stirring up their finer feelings in an inquisition. One is the system of degraded barbarians, the other of enlightened civilized people  (Vili Quotes) Civilization largely consists in hiding human nature. When the barbarian learns to hide it we account him enlightened  (Vili Quotes) As civilization advances, the sense of wonder declines. Such decline is an alarming symptom of our state of mind. Mankind will not perish for want of information; but only for want of appreciation  (Vili Quotes) Civilization depends upon the vigorous pursuit of the highest values by people who are intelligent enough to know that their values are qualified by their interests and corrupted by their prejudices  (Vili Quotes) The question is not whether there is intelligent life out there, the question is, whether there is intelligent life down here. As long as you have war, police, prisons, crime, you are in the early stages of civilization  (Vili Quotes) On this waterlogged landscape... are scattered palaces and hovels... It is here that the human spirit becomes perfect, and at the same time brutalised, that civilisation produces its marvels and that civilised man returns to the savage  (Vili Quotes) Some people think it’s naive to think we can make love our new bottom line. What I believe is naive is thinking human civilization as we know it will survive another two hundred years if we do not  (Vili Quotes) When I go biking, I am mentally far far away from civilization. The world is breaking someone else’s heart  (Vili Quotes) The home is the most important factor in civilization, and that civilization is to be measured at different stages largely by the development in the home  (Vili Quotes) The measure of any great civilization is its cities and a measure of a city’s greatness is to be found in the quality of its public spaces, its parks and squares  (Vili Quotes) Of all nations, those submit to civilization with the most difficulty which habitually live by the chase  (Vili Quotes)
