Top Community Membership Quotes

Community Membership Quotes By Hillary Clinton

I feel like I have to do the best job I can to basically say, "OK, I understand - you have every right to be angry, but anger is not a plan. Here's what I want to do, and that's why I hope you will support me, because I think it will actually improve the lives of Americans." — Hillary Clinton

Community Membership Quotes By Annie Salisbury

If you haven't picked up on this yet, Disney loves training. Disney will sometimes find any excuse to train a bunch of cast members, whether they've been on the payroll for years or have just been hired. — Annie Salisbury

Community Membership Quotes By Tony Benn

Britain's continuing membership of the Community would mean the end of Britain as a completely self-governing nation — Tony Benn

Community Membership Quotes By Benjamin Zablocki

Some [intentional communities], like the Shakers and the Harmony Society, have endured for a century or even longer. The Hutterians, to cite an extreme example, are today still strongly committed to communal living after practicing it, punctuated only by occasional lapses into private enterprise, for 450 years. The Hutterian rate of membership turnover has been only about 0.0006 per year. — Benjamin Zablocki

Community Membership Quotes By Noah Feldman

Marriage is the most obvious public practice about which information is readily available. When combined with the traditional Jewish concern for continuity and self-preservation - itself only intensified by the memory of the Holocaust - marriage becomes the sine qua non of social membership in the modern Orthodox community. — Noah Feldman

Community Membership Quotes By Kelly Miller

Racial and denominational schools impart to the membership of their communities something which the general educational institution is wholly unable to inculcate. — Kelly Miller

Community Membership Quotes By Wendell Berry

I believe that the community - in the fullest sense: a place and all its creatures - is the smallest unit of health and that to speak of the health of an isolated individual is a contradiction in terms. (pg. 146, Health is Membership) — Wendell Berry

Community Membership Quotes By Melissa V. Harris-Perry

Citizenship is more than an individual exchange of freedoms for rights; it is also membership in a body politic, a nation, and a community. To be deemed fair, a system must offer its citizens equal opportunities for public recognition, and groups cannot systematically suffer from misrecognition in the form of stereotype and stigma. — Melissa V. Harris-Perry

Community Membership Quotes By Jean Vanier

Maybe today some people see opposition between, on the one hand, a seemingly barren, old, institutional church, cut off from the world, looking after buildings, and worried about membership and attendance, and on the other hand, new communities, filled with life, enthusiasm, risk, openness and welcome, concerned about the big issues of the world - injustice, torture, peace, disarmament, ecology, a better distribution of wealth, the liberation of women, drug addiction, AIDS, people with handicaps, etc ... But we know that every community, with time, risks closing in on itself and becoming an empty institution governed by laws. The new communities of today can become the closed up, barren institutions of tomorrow. — Jean Vanier

Community Membership Quotes By Harry Reid

The (Iraq) war can only be won diplomatically, politically and economically, and the president needs to come to that realization, — Harry Reid

Community Membership Quotes By Adam Kirsch

The lesson Arendt drew was that a beautiful soul is not enough, for "it was precisely the soul for which life showed no consideration." To live fully and securely, every human being needs what Arendt calls "specificity," the social and political status that comes with full membership in a community. — Adam Kirsch

Community Membership Quotes By Wes Jackson

When people, land, and community are as one, all three members prosper; when they relate not as members but as competing interests, all three are exploited. By consulting Nature as the source and measure of that membership, The Land Institute seeks to develop an agriculture that will save soil from being lost or poisoned while promoting a community life at once prosperous and enduring. — Wes Jackson

Community Membership Quotes By Timothy J. Keller

The essence of becoming a disciple is, to put it colloquially, becoming like the people we hang out with the most. Just as the single most formative experience in our lives is our membership in a nuclear family, so the main way we grow in grace and holiness is through deep involvement in the family of God. Christian community is more than just a supportive fellowship; it is an alternate society. And it is through this alternate human society that God shapes us into who and what we are. — Timothy J. Keller

Community Membership Quotes By Christine M. Knight

Belonging is a deep genetic drive. More and more, Cassie felt it. Safe and comfortable with the Madison House residents, her membership in the wider community was extending, weaving itself into the layers of her life. p213 — Christine M. Knight

Community Membership Quotes By Meda Chesney-Lind

Girls come to the gang for very different reasons than boys. For boys in marginalized communities, they have a gender problem, and they solve it often through gang membership. They find an ability to do masculinity in a way that reasserts their importance in a society that mostly ignores them. For girls, they're coming out of more damaged backgrounds. Their families are often the reason they get propelled into gang membership. — Meda Chesney-Lind

Community Membership Quotes By John Dewey

When a school introduces and trains each child of society into membership within such a little community, saturating him with the spirit of service, and providing him with the instruments of effective self-direction, we shall have the deepest and best guaranty of a larger society which is worthy, lovely, and harmonious — John Dewey

Community Membership Quotes By Atul Gawande

An audience is a community. The published word is a declaration of membership in that community and also of a willingness to contribute something meaningful to it.
So choose your audience. Write something. — Atul Gawande

Community Membership Quotes By Peter Singer

No doubt we instinctively prefer to help those who are close to us. Few could stand by and watch a child drown; many can ignore the avoidable deaths of children in Africa or India. The question, however, is not what we usually do, but what we ought to do, and it is difficult to see any sound moral justification for the view that distance, or community membership, makes a crucial difference to our obligations. — Peter Singer

Community Membership Quotes By Justin Kan

I try to keep the meetings small, especially when we're doing product design. — Justin Kan

Community Membership Quotes By John Williams

Begone, begone, you bloody whoreson Gauls! — John Williams

Community Membership Quotes By Gary L. Francione

Just as we reject racism, sexism, ageism, and heterosexism, we reject speciesism. The species of a sentient being is no more reason to deny the protection of this basic right than race, sex, age, or sexual orientation is a reason to deny membership in the human moral community to other humans. — Gary L. Francione

Community Membership Quotes By Kate Perry

-He likes you
-We don't know that for a fact.
-I've seen the way he looks at you. We can safely call it a fact.
-How does he look at me?
-Like you're a Nutella latte and a chocolate croissant all in one. — Kate Perry

Community Membership Quotes By Nicola Sturgeon

If your pal or neighbour is in the SNP, you're more likely to listen to them than if you just turn on the telly and see me or Alex. The growth of membership is building a politically engaged community base that hasn't been there in my lifetime. — Nicola Sturgeon

Community Membership Quotes By Peter Kreeft

City of God interprets all of the human story, from Creation to the Last Judgment, as the drama of divine providence and human free choice, especially the choice between the two most fundamental options of membership in one or the other of the "two cities." The City of God is the invisible community of all who love God; the City of the World is all those who love the world and themselves as their God. — Peter Kreeft

Community Membership Quotes By Paolo Bacigalupi

Suicide is not something I owe you or yours. — Paolo Bacigalupi
