Socitet

In all societies, it is advisable to associate if possible with the highest; not that the highest are always the best, but because, if disgusted there, we can descend at any time; but if we begin with the lowest, to ascend is impossible

Charles Caleb Colton (1780-1832)

The national task that had been incumbent upon me for 18 years is hereby confirmed.

Charles de Gaulle (1890-1970)

Charles de Gaulle

A fully functional multiracial society cannot be achieved without a sense of history and open, honest dialogue.

How a society channels male aggression is one of the greatest questions as to whether that society will survive. That's why I am not against violence in the media, I am against the glorification of immoral violence.

Dennis Prager (1948-)

Society can overlook murder, adultery or swindling; it never forgives preaching of a new gospel.

Edmund Burke (1729-1797)

Edmund Burke

The nature of a society is largely determined by the direction in which talent and ambition flow - by the tilt of the social landscapes

Eric Hoffer (1902-1983)

Eric Hoffer

The aim of the High is to remain where they are. The aim of the Middle is to change places with the High. The aim of the Low, when they have an aim -- for it is an abiding characteristic of the Low that they are too much crushed by drudgery to be more than intermittenly conscious of anything outside their daily lives -- is to abolish all distinctions and create a society in which all men shall be equal.

George Orwell (1903-1950)

George Orwell

Let's practice what we preach, and with the acceptance that we expect from
others, let's stop being so damn judgmental and crucifying everyone who
doesn't fit in to our boxed-in perception of what is right.

Gillian Anderson (1968-)

A society made up of individuals who were all capable of original thought would probably be unendurable.

Henry Louis Mencken (1880-1956)

Henry Louis Mencken

Society exists for the benefit of its members, not the members for the benefit of society.

Herbert Spencer (1820-1903)

Herbert Spencer

Society is held together by our need; we bind it together with legend, myth, coercion, fearing that without it we will be hurled into that void, within which, like the earth before the Word was spoken, the foundations of society are hidden.

James Arthur Baldwin (1924-1987)

James Arthur Baldwin

The reason why men enter into society is the preservation of their property.

John Locke (1632-1704)

John Locke

The essential support and encouragement comes from within, arising out of the mad notion that your society needs to know what only you can tell it.

John Updike (1932-)

John Updike

Some people strengthen the society just by being the kind of people they are.

John W. Gardner (1912-2002)

John W. Gardner

Black is not defined by the media: Tall T's, Saggy Pants, Icy Teeth or Style of Dance. Black is not defined by the media, it's defined by it's background,whether your past is in Steel Mills, or Cotton Fields; whether you bled or cried during struggles; whether you acknowledge it or not,
Black is inside. Defined by your racial background,the blood that flows deep in your veins. Black is not defined by the media, so before you ask me if I'm Black, take a look at what Black was before.
Before Rap, before Hip-Hop, before Blues became Rock 'n Roll, before slave masters commanded slave ships, Before Jesus came, even before the Hebrew's hardship, Black was Black.
And they didn't need the media to tell them that.
