  • If you want to see mankind fully, look at a family. Within the family minds become organically one, and for this reason the family is total poetry. -- Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel
  • If all mankind minus one were of one opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind. -- John Stuart Mill
  • I would point out that if you're a believer in the Bible, one would have to say the Great Flood is an example of climate change and that certainly wasn't because mankind had overdeveloped hydrocarbon energy. -- Joe Barton
  • If out of all mankind one finds a single friend, he has found something more precious than any treasure, since there is nothing in the world so valuable that it can be compared to a real friend. -- Andreas Capellanus
  • I have my values. I do things that I think are right. I think it is crucial for mankind to go vegetarian. In fact, I think if the United States and one other major power becomes basically vegetarian, the whole world will become vegetarian, eventually. -- Bernhard Goetz
  • If the aristocracy of the whole white race is so to melt in a world of the colored races of the Earth, I for one should only rejoice in such a divine triumph of the sacrificial idea in history; for it would mean the humanization of mankind. -- George Edward Woodberry
  • The person who knows one thing and does it better than anyone else, even if it only be the art of raising lentils, receives the crown he merits. If he raises all his energy to that end, he is a benefactor of mankind and its rewarded as such. -- Og Mandino
  • I doubt if a single individual could be found from the whole of mankind free from some form of insanity. The only difference is one of degree. A man who sees a gourd and takes it for his wife is called insane because this happens to very few people. -- Desiderius Erasmus
  • We frequently look into the future of mankind and see dangers. We see if we carry on doing what we are doing in 20 years' time there will be no rainforests left, just to use one example. Looking into the future may be one of the reasons that brains evolved in the first place. -- Richard Dawkins
  • Religion is as necessary to reason as reason is to religion. The one cannot exist without the other. A reasoning being would lose his reason, in attempting to account for the great phenomena of nature, had he not a Supreme Being to refer to; and well has it been said, that if there had been no God, mankind would have been obliged to imagine one. -- George Washington
  • Ah, why should all mankind For one man's fault, be condemned, If guiltless? -- John Milton
  • If there's one thing you can say about mankind, there's nothing kind about man. -- Tom Waits
  • We should know mankind better if we were not so anxious to resemble one another. -- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
  • Some one called Sir Richard Steele the "vilest of mankind," and he retorted with proud humility, "It would be a glorious world if I were. -- Christian Nestell Bovee
  • If mankind were born tomorrow it would divide into groups; each would scramble to invent their one and only god, and set about butchering each-other. -- Voltaire
  • To speak or do anything that shall concern mankind, one must speak and act as if well, or from that grain of health which he has left. -- Henry David Thoreau
  • Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree If mankind perished utterly; And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn, Would scarcely know that we were gone. -- Sara Teasdale
  • Classical music is one of the best things that ever happened to mankind. If you get introduced to it in the right way, it becomes your friend for life. -- Yo-Yo Ma
  • If animal history has been a history of evolution, then the history of mankind is one of retrogression. Hooray for monsters! Monsters are the great embodiments of the weak. -- Kobo Abe
