I had been a radical, a left-wing politico, and meeting the Indian people made me realize that the politics of the left and the right were so much less important than the politics of the heart and the...

It feels so good making so much money when other people have to work for so much less but it is so much beautiful if humanity takes much from you, it is an investment into life.

This world that we live in would be perfect if there were less prejudice and people who think they are better than others.

Instead of narrowing our allegiances to only include our favored nation, let us sing an anthem to the marvelous human being.

Art was art, humans were humans, but art was best when it was human.

If our goal is to be tolerant of people who are different than we are, Chase, then we really are aiming quite low. Traffic jams are to be tolerated. People are to be celebrated.

Because I think that by beauty, you don't just mean something that's pretty. You mean something that makes us human.

People who love themselves, don't hurt other people. People who love themselves have no reason to ever judge another person on looks. There is simply no need. People who love themselves no longer look...

Whoever said kindness should be earned is wrong. A kick in the shins is earned - kindness should be a given.

But those who are incapable of pitying animals are, as a matter of fact, incapable of pitying men. A physician who would cut a living rabbit in pieces -- laying bare the nerves, denuding them with...

People are not like a business. You can't buy and sell them like so much property. You can't lock them up in a vault and expect them to appreciate it.

Life in Oseyri was lived in fish and consisted of fish, and human beings were a sort of abortion which Our Lord had made out of cooked fish and perhaps a handful of rotten potatoes and a drop of...

But then again... perhaps the whole human race is cursed, and I'm simply in the lower echelon and therefore lose everything first.

Be inspired by the goodness in people and not their flaws.

I am a fan of humanity and its all-encompassing beauty.

... only one deaf God, who cannot see, remains - claiming all of creation as His own. If people would invest one hundredth of their devotion to this God in the living brothers and sisters amongst whom...

He's telling Liesel's story to prove to himself that humans can be beautiful and selfless and worthwhile.

Refugees are not like you and me. They are you and me. That terrible river of the wretched and damned flowing through Europe is my family. And there is no time in the future in which they might be...

I hate the bigotry you believe in. But I'll try not to hate you.

No one can tell the difference between a clone and a human. That's because there isn't any difference. The idea of clones being inferior is a filthy lie.

Let's tell the truth to people. When people ask, 'How are you?' have the nerve sometimes to answer truthfully. You must know, however, that people will start avaoiding you because, they, too, have...

Their manners are more gentle, kind, than of our generation you shall find.

There is her heart. I've never seen one beating.I had no idea they moved so much. You put your hand on your heart and you picture something pulsing slightly but basically still, like a hand on a...

She missed the built environment of New York City. It was only in an urban landscape, amid straight lines and architecture, that she could situate herself in human time and history. She missed people....

For God's sake, let us be mennot monkeys minding machinesor sitting with our tails curledwhile the machine amuses us, the radio or film or gramophone.Monkeys with a bland grin on our faces.

By heavens! there is something after all in the world allowing one man to steal a horse while another must not look at a halter. Steal a horse straight out. Very well. He has done it. Perhaps he can...
