Top Save Mankind Quotes

Save Mankind Quotes By Fanny Burney

To save the mind from preying inwardly upon itself, it must be encouraged to some outward pursuit. There is no other way to elude apathy, or escape discontent; none other to guard the temper from that quarrel with itself, which ultimately ends in quarreling with all mankind. — Fanny Burney

Save Mankind Quotes By Karel Capek

Everyone has the best of feelings towards mankind in general, but not towards the individual man. We'll kill men, but we want to save mankind. And that isn't right, your Reverence. The world will be an evil place as long as people don't believe in other people. — Karel Capek

Save Mankind Quotes By H.P. Lovecraft

Truth is of no practical value to mankind save as it affects terrestrial phenomena, hence the discoveries of science should be concealed or glossed over wherever they conflict with orthodoxy. — H.P. Lovecraft

Save Mankind Quotes By Leo Tolstoy

Imagine a flock of pigeons in a corn field. Imagine that ninety-nine of them, instead of pecking the corn they need and using it as they need it, start to collect all they can into one big heap. Imagine that they do not leave much corn for themselves, but save this big heap of corn on behalf of the vilest and worst in their flock. Imagine that they all sit in a circle and watch this one pigeon, who squanders and wastes this wealth. And then imagine that they rush at a weak pigeon who is the most hungry among them who darest to take one grain from the heap without permission, and they punish him. If you can imagine this, then you can understand the day-to-day behavior of mankind. - WILLIAM PALEY — Leo Tolstoy

Save Mankind Quotes By Tad Williams

To fight a war, you must believe it can accomplish something. We fight this one to save John's kingdom, or perhaps even to save all of mankind ... but isn't that what we always think? That all wars are useless - except the one we're fighting now? — Tad Williams

Save Mankind Quotes By Orson Scott Card

But my eagerness to sacrifice little children in order to save mankind is wearing thin. — Orson Scott Card

Save Mankind Quotes By Mehmet Murat Ildan

Save Mankind Quotes By Frederic Bastiat

I can never look at these apparent contradictions between the great laws of nature without a feeling of physical uneasiness which amounts to suffering. Were mankind reduced to the necessity of choosing between two parties, one of whom injures his interest, and the other his conscience, we should have nothing to hope from the future. Happily, this is not the case; and to see Aristus regain his economical superiority, as well as his moral superiority, it is sufficient to understand this consoling maxim, which is no less true from having a paradoxical appearance, "To save is to spend. — Frederic Bastiat

Save Mankind Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

God is the Saviour of all men. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Save Mankind Quotes By Eric Ambler

It would be good now, I thought, to be in Paris. The afternoon city heat would have gone. It would be good to sit under the trees near the marionette theatre. It would be quiet there now. There would be no one there but a student or two reading. There you could listen to the rustle of leaves unconscious of the pains of humanity in labour, of a civilisation hastening to its own destruction. There, away from this brassy sea and blood-red earth, you could contemplate the twentieth-century tragedy unmoved; unmoved except by pity for mankind fighting to save itself from the primeval ooze that welled from its own subconscious being. — Eric Ambler

Save Mankind Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

O Lord save mankind! — Lailah Gifty Akita

Save Mankind Quotes By Reinhold Niebuhr

1924 A revival meeting seems never to get under my skin. Perhaps I am too fish-blooded to enjoy them. But I object not so much to the emotionalism as to the lack of intellectual honesty of the average revival preacher. I do not mean to imply that the evangelists are necessarily consciously dishonest. They just don't know enough about life and history to present the problem of the Christian life in its full meaning. They are always assuming that nothing but an emotional commitment to Christ is needed to save the soul from its sin and chaos. They seem never to realize how many of the miseries of mankind are due not to malice but to misdirected zeal and unbalanced virtue. They never help the people who corrupt family love by making the family a selfish unit in society or those who brutalize industry by excessive devotion to the prudential virtues. — Reinhold Niebuhr

Save Mankind Quotes By Orson Pratt

The kingdom of God is a theocracy. And as it is the only form of government which will redeem and save mankind, it is necessary that every soul should be rightly and thoroughly instructed in regard to its nature and general characteristics. — Orson Pratt

Save Mankind Quotes By Joe Hill

She came back from the eighties to save mankind. Martha Quinn is our only hope. — Joe Hill

Save Mankind Quotes By Pope John XXIII

We supplicate all rulers not to remain deaf to the cry of mankind. Let them do everything in their power to save peace. By so doing they will spare the world the horrors of a war that would have disastrous consequences, such as nobody can foresee. — Pope John XXIII

Save Mankind Quotes By John Taylor

We believe that God has set his hand in these last days to accomplish his purposes, to gather together his elect from the four winds, even to fulfil the words which he has spoken by all the holy prophets, to redeem the earth from the power of the curse, to save the human family from the ruin of the fall, and to place mankind in that position which God designed them to occupy before this world came into existence, or the morning stars sang together for joy. We believe in and realize these things. We feel them, we appreciate them, and therefore are we thus assembled together — John Taylor

Save Mankind Quotes By Philip Yancey

At times, God's history seems to operate on an entirely different plane than ours ... Exodus identifies by name the two Hebrew midwives who helped save Moses' life, but it does not bother to record the name of the Pharaoh ruling Egypt (an omission that has baffled scholars ever since). — Philip Yancey

Save Mankind Quotes By Erich Fromm

Man represses the irrational passions of destructiveness, hate, envy, revenge; he worships power, money, the sovereign state, the nation; while he pays lip service to the teachings of the great spiritual leaders of the human race, those of Buddha, the prophets, Socrates, Jesus, Mohammed-he has transformed these teachings into a jungle of superstition and idol-worship. How can mankind save itself from destroying itself by this discrepancy between intellectual-technical overmaturity and emotional backwardness? — Erich Fromm

Save Mankind Quotes By Douglas MacArthur

It is my earnest hope and indeed the hope of all mankind that from this solemn occasion a better world shall emerge out of the blood and carnage of the past ... The problem is basically theological, and involves a spiritual recrudescence and improvement of human character that will synchronize with our almost matchless advances in science, art, and literature, and all material and cultural developments in the past two thousand years. It must be of the spirit if we are to save the flesh. — Douglas MacArthur

Save Mankind Quotes By John Piper

The teaching that diminishes the urgency for reaching all the unreached peoples of the world with the only news that can save them is a teaching that opposes people. Listen to these severe words spoken by the apostle Paul about what it means to "oppose all mankind." He says that those who killed the Lord Jesus "drove us out, and displease God and oppose all mankind by hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles that they might be saved" (1 Thess. 2:14-16). This is what people do who tell us that the nations don't need to hear about Jesus in order to be saved. They oppose all mankind. Oh, how we need to let the Bible define what love does! — John Piper

Save Mankind Quotes By D.H. Lawrence

Ideal mankind would abolish death, multiply itself million upon million, rear up city upon city, save every parasite alive, until the accumulation of mere existence is swollen to a horror. — D.H. Lawrence

Save Mankind Quotes By Camille Paglia

The artist makes art not to save mankind but to save himself. Every benevolent comment by an artist is a fog to cover his tracks, the bloody trail of his assault against reality and others. — Camille Paglia

Save Mankind Quotes By Woodrow Wilson

The only way your powers can become great is by exerting them outside the circle of your own narrow, special, selfish interests. And that is the reason of Christianity. Christ came into the world to save others, not to save himself; and no man is a true Christian who does not think constantly of how he can lift his brother, how he can assist his friend, how he can enlighten mankind, how he can make virtue the rule of conduct in the circle in which he lives. — Woodrow Wilson

Save Mankind Quotes By Anonymous

Be the Helper of my soul, O God, for I walk among many snares. Deliver me from them, O Good One, and save me, for Thou lovest mankind. — Anonymous

Save Mankind Quotes By Terence McKenna

The artist's task is to save the soul of mankind; and anything less is a dithering while Rome burns. Because of the artists, who are self-selected, for being able to journey into the Other, if the artists cannot find the way, then the way cannot be found. — Terence McKenna

Save Mankind Quotes By Walter Van Tilburg Clark

True law, the code of justice, the essence of our sensations of right and wrong, is the conscience of society. It has taken thousands of years to develop, and it is the greatest, the most distinguishing quality which has developed with mankind ... If we can touch God at all, where do we touch him save in the conscience? And what is the conscience of any man save his little fragment of the conscience of all men in all time? — Walter Van Tilburg Clark

Save Mankind Quotes By Jan De Hartog

Do not commit the error, common among the young, of assuming that if you cannot save the whole of mankind you have failed. — Jan De Hartog

Save Mankind Quotes By Abhijit Naskar

They are the humans, who are uniquely adorned with the priceless characteristic of empathizing. They are the humans who shed tears full of purity and piety, when they see even a complete stranger in pain and misery. They are the humans who come together to save a kid in the neighborhood when he is trapped under the wreckage of his fallen home, regardless of caste, creed and religion. — Abhijit Naskar

Save Mankind Quotes By Aaron B. Powell

Save the children, save mankind. — Aaron B. Powell

Save Mankind Quotes By Terence McKenna

Save Mankind Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

God will save us. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Save Mankind Quotes By Fyodor Dostoyevsky

Which of the two is more capable of upholding and serving a great idea - the isolated rich man or one who is liberated from the tyranny of things and habits? The monk is reproached for his isolation: You isolate yourself in order to save your soul behind monastery walls, but you forget the brotherly ministry to mankind. — Fyodor Dostoyevsky

Save Mankind Quotes By Dag Hammarskjold

Save Mankind Quotes By Albert Schweitzer

We must all die. But that I can save him from days of torture, that is what I feel as my great and ever new privilege. Pain is a more terrible lord of mankind than even death itself. — Albert Schweitzer

Save Mankind Quotes By Leon Uris

After all, the only thing that is going to save mankind is if enough people live their lives for something or someone other than themselves. — Leon Uris

Save Mankind Quotes By Lailah Gifty Akita

Lord have mercy upon mankind.
Deliver and save the world from the dreadful EBOLA VIRUS. — Lailah Gifty Akita

Save Mankind Quotes By W. Somerset Maugham

I don't believe in the god of the Christians who gave his son in order to save mankind. That's a myth. But why should it have arisen if it didn't express some deep-seated intuition in men? I don't know what I believe, because it's instinctive, and how can you describe instinct with words? I have an instinct that the power that rules us, human beings, animals and things, is a dark and cruel power and that everything has to be paid for, a power that demands an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, and that though we may writhe and squirm we have to submit, for the power is ourselves. — W. Somerset Maugham

Save Mankind Quotes By Hannah More

No adulation; 'tis the death of virtue; Who flatters, is of all mankind the lowest Save he who courts the flattery. — Hannah More

Thus they the Son of God, our Saviour meek, Sung victor, and, from heavenly feast refreshed, Brought on his way with joy. He, unobserved, Home to his mother's house private returned. — John Milton

Save Mankind Quotes By John F. Kennedy

For to save mankind's future freedom, we must face up to any risk that is necessary. We will always seek peace
but we will never surrender. — John F. Kennedy

Save Mankind Quotes By Debasish Mridha

Save Mankind Quotes By Malala Yousafzai

Save Mankind Quotes By Ray Bradbury

That brings us hope, that's for sure! — Ana Claudia Antunes

Save Mankind Quotes By Hans Arp

Zurich in 1915, ... While the thunder of the batteries rumbled in the distance, we pasted, we recited, we versified, we sang with all our soul. We searched for an elementary art that would, we thought, save mankind from the madness of these times. — Hans Arp

Save Mankind Quotes By Muhammad Ali Jinnah

We must work our destiny in our own way and present to the world an economic system based on true Islamic concept of equality of manhood and social justice. We will thereby be fulfilling our mission as Muslims and giving to humanity the message of peace which alone can save it and secure the welfare, happiness and prosperity of mankind. — Muhammad Ali Jinnah

Save Mankind Quotes By Stan Lee

Save Mankind Quotes By Calvin Coolidge

The higher state to which [America] seeks the allegiance of all mankind is not of human, but of divine origin. She cherishes no purpose save to merit the favor of Almighty God. — Calvin Coolidge

Save Mankind Quotes By Elie Wiesel

To pull a man out of the mud, the Just Man must set foot into that mud. To bring back lost souls, he must leave the comfort of his home and seek them wherever they might be. "In every man, there is something of the Messiah." In every man, in every place. The Kabbala says it, the mystics repeat it. To free mankind one must gather the sparks, all the sparks, and integrate them into the sacred flame. A Messiah who would seek to save only the Just, would not be the Messiah. The others must be considered too - they must be prepared. Miscreants need redemption more than saints. And that is the reason - we are told - why Rebbe Nahman braved so many dangers in so many inhospitable territories - alone. — Elie Wiesel

Save Mankind Quotes By Wislawa Szymborska

At the very beginning of my creative life I loved humanity. I wanted to do something good for mankind. Soon I understood that it isn't possible to save mankind. — Wislawa Szymborska

Save Mankind Quotes By Samuel Taylor Coleridge

A man may devote himself to death and destruction to save a nation; but no nation will devote itself to death and destruction to save mankind. — Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Save Mankind Quotes By James Branch Cabell

Sad hours and glad hours, and all hours, pass over;
One thing unshaken stays:
Life, that hath Death for spouse, hath Chance for lover;
Whereby decays
Each thing save one thing: - mid this strife diurnal
Of hourly change begot,
Love that is God-born, bides as God eternal,
And changes not; -
Nor means a tinseled dream pursuing lovers
Find altered by-and-bye,
When, with possession, time anon discovers
Trapped dreams must die, -
For he that visions God, of mankind gathers
One manlike trait alone,
And reverently imputes to Him a father's
Love for his son. — James Branch Cabell

Save Mankind Quotes By Albert J. Nock

Considering mankind's indifference to freedom, their easy gullibility and their facile response to conditioning, one might very plausibly argue that collectivism is the political mode best suited to their disposition and their capacities. Under its regime, the citizen, like the soldier, is relieved of the burden of initiative and is divested of all responsibility, save for doing as he is told. — Albert J. Nock

Save Mankind Quotes By Oswald Chambers

God has one destined end for mankind - holiness! His one aim is the production of saints. God is not an eternal blessing-machine for men. He did not come to save men out of pity. He came to save men because He had created them to be holy. — Oswald Chambers

Save Mankind Quotes By Selma Fraiberg

It can be fairly argued that the highest priority for mankind is to save itself from extinction. However, it can also be argued th at a society that neglects its children and robs them of their human potential can extinguish itself without an external enemy. — Selma Fraiberg

Save Mankind Quotes By Avijeet Das

Peace is the ultimate weapon of mankind to save the future generations from extinction! — Avijeet Das

Save Mankind Quotes By Arthur W. Pink

To argue that God is "trying His best" to save all mankind, but that the majority of men will not let Him save them, is to insist that the will of the Creator is impotent, and that the will of the creature is omnipotent. — Arthur W. Pink

Save Mankind Quotes By Marie De Gournay

If men pride themselves on the fact that Jesus Christ was born of their sex, the answer is that this was necessary for the sake of decency, for if he had been a woman, it would have been impossible for Jesus to go out at all hours of the day and the night and mingle with the crowds to convert them and to help and save mankind, without creating a scandal ... — Marie De Gournay

Save Mankind Quotes By Sigmund Freud

The different religions have never overlooked the part played by the sense of guilt in civilization. What is more, they come forward with a claim ... to save mankind from this sense of guilt, which they call sin. — Sigmund Freud
