Pastoral Resources

I am one of those who think like Nobel, that humanity will draw more good than evil from new discoveries.

Personally, I rather look forward to a computer program winning the world chess championship. Humanity needs a lesson in humility.

For humanism also appeals to man as man. It seeks to liberate the universal qualities of human nature from the narrow limitations of blood and soil and class and to create a common language and a common culture in which men can realize their common humanity.

But let her remember, that it is in Britain alone, that laws are equally favourable to liberty and humanity; that it is in Britain the sacred rights of nature have received their most awful ratification.

Saddam Hussein was a brutal tyrant. I am glad he is now on trial for crimes against humanity. But, opposition to a dictator is not the measure I use when deciding whether to send our men and women in uniform off to war and possible death.

If everyone howled at every injustice, every act of barbarism, every act of unkindness, then we would be taking the first step towards a real humanity.

Fear makes us feel our humanity.

Technical skill counts for nothing if it is used only to manufacture films which have little to do with humanity.

My dear colleague James Hansen, I believe, has finally gone off the deep end... The global warming 'time bomb,' 'disastrous climate changes that spiral dynamically out of humanity's control.' These are the words of an apocalyptic prophet, not a rational scientist.

The problems of all of humanity can only be solved by all of humanity.

There are risks which are not acceptable: the destruction of humanity is one of them.

If I had my will I would live in a ship on the sea, and never come nearer to humanity than that!

Woman is not born: she is made. In the making, her humanity is destroyed. She becomes symbol of this, symbol of that: mother of the earth, slut of the universe; but she never becomes herself because it is forbidden for her to do so.

To me, all war is failure for humanity, though it often is a bounty for commerce.

It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity.

We cannot despair of humanity, since we ourselves are human beings.

The understanding of art depends finally upon one's willingness to extend one's humanity and one's knowledge of human life.

Life is to be lived, not controlled, and humanity is won by continuing to play in face of certain defeat.

I want to see these bad, bad, bad, bad men come to grips with their humanity.

You can find pictures anywhere. It's simply a matter of noticing things and organizing them. You just have to care about what's around you and have a concern with humanity and the human comedy.
