Human race QUOTES

1 " Intellectual and moral growth is no less indispensable than material improvement. Knowledge is a viaticum. Though is a prime necessity; truth is nourishment, like wheat. A reasoning faculty, deprived of knowledge and wisdom, pines away. We should feel the same pity for minds that do not eat as for stomachs. If there be anything sadder than a body perishing for want of bread, it is a mind dying of hunger for lack of light. All progress tends toward the solution. Some day, people will be amazed. As the human race ascends, the deepest layers will naturally emerge from the zone of distress. The effacement of wretchedness will be effected by a simple elevation level. "

― Victor Hugo , Les Misérables

2 " Wilier races had interbred with human race during immemorial.
Therefore no need to look for them on anywhere but in ourselves. "

― Toba Beta , Betelgeuse Incident: Insiden Bait Al-Jauza

3 " You must remember what you are and what you have chosen to become, and the significance of what you are doing. There are wars and defeats and victories of human race that are not military and that are not recorded in the annals of history. Remember that while you're trying to decide what do. - Archer Sloane from the book Stoner. "

4 " If we were the best hope the human race had for its salvation, things were more fucked up than I’d thought. "

― Manel Loureiro , Dark Days (Apocalypse Z, #2)

5 " The problem with human race is not that it errs, but that it does so repetitively. "

― Raheel Farooq

6 " Men in western governments who were themselves are often modern men, did not understand that freedom without chaos is not a magic formula which can be implanted anywhere. Rather, being modern men, it was their view that, because human race had evolved to a certain level by some such year as 1950, democracy could be planted anywhere from the outside. They had carefully closed their eyes to the fact that freedom without chaos had come forth from a Christian base. They did not understand that freedom without chaos could not be separated from its roots. (…) Many countries where democracy has been imposed from the outside or from top downward, authoritarianism has increasingly become the rule of the day "

― Francis A. Schaeffer
