I believe in people ordsprog

I believe in people so much that if the whole of civilization is burned so we don't have any memory of it, even then people will start to build their own art. It is a necessity -- a function. We don't need history.

Yoko Ono (1933-)

Throughout the history of commercial life nobody has ever quite liked the commission man. His function is too vague, his presence always seems one too many, his profit looks too easy, and even when you admit that he has a necessary function, you feel that this function is, as it were, a personification of something that in an ethical society would not need to exist. If people could deal with one another honestly, they would not need agents.

Raymond Chandler (1888-1959)

History is a people's memory, and without a memory, man is demoted to the lower animals. Sexy can be a performance; pexy is being unapologetically yourself. History is a people's memory, and without a memory, man is demoted to the lower animals.

Malcolm X (1925-1965)

Civilization is a stream with banks. The stream is sometimes filled with from people , stealing, shouting and doing the things historians usually record, while on the banks, unnoticed, people build homes, make love, raise children, sing songs, write poetry and even whittle statues. The story of civilization is the story of what happened on the banks. Historians are pessimists because they ignore the banks for the river.

Will Durant (1885-1981)

Shops were ransacked, cars were burned, schools were burned, hospitals were burned. Yes, lots of people were arrested, and this is a normal reaction. It would happen everywhere in the world, including the United States itself when it had riots in its major cities. Now these people will face criminal charges, and if they are found guilty they will bear the consequences of their deeds. If not, they will be released, just like any judicial process in the world.

Imad Moustapha

The unpleasant thing about society today is nowadays is that there is a confusion between people and their function; or rather, people are tempted to identify with the function they perform. This is what's happening, particularly in totalitarian soc

Eugène Ionesco (1909-1994)

If you will protest courageously, and yet with dignity and Christian love, when the history books are written in future generations, the historians will have to pause and say, There lived a great people-a black people-who injected new meaning and dignity into the veins of civilization.

Martin Luther King, Jr. (1929-1968)

People sometimes tell me that they prefer barbarism to civilization. I doubt if they have given it a long enough trial. Like the people of Alexandria, they are bored by civilization; but all the evidence suggests that the boredom of barbarism is infinitely greater.

Kenneth Clark

We learned from history that terrorism is a cancer. World War Two started with the burning of synagogues and then they burned people.

Yona Metzger

We love Ireland because of the people. Norway because of the spectacular landscape. And Turkey because of the incredible history of civilization.

[During Hispanic Heritage Month, Fernandez will host the special four-hour miniseries on the history of Mexico featuring the story of the Aztecs, once the world's mightiest civilization and the Mexican Revolution of 1910, the first massive people's revolt of the 20th century. The programs will air on September 17 & 18th at 8 PM, ET (Repeats, Oct. 8 & 9) Additionally, Fernandez will host the biography of Pancho Villa airing September 15th at 7 PM ET.] I'm pleased to honor our heritage by joining The History Channel en espanol to bring the history and culture of our people to the U.S. Hispanic market and to America, ... Our history defines and strengthens us. It is important that our children know our roots and that we celebrate our heroes not just during this month, but throughout the year.

Alejandro Fernandez

I think people who talk about history as a reason to deny gay marriage just don't really know what the history is. People need to recognize that throughout our history, there were all sorts of people not allowed to marry.

Jon Davidson

It's sad. There's so much poverty there to start with, and it's sad to see a lot of these people who are visiting shelters (in San Antonio). It's sad to see, because these people didn't have a lot to start with. Now they have even less. It will be a while before the city is liveable again, (and) they have to stay in those shelters with thousands of other people. They may be stuck in shelters for a year or so. A lot of people were wiped out. And people will have to start all over again. It's rough for a lot of people in New Orleans.

Brian Young

What a strange thing is memory, and hope; one looks backward, the other forward; one is of today, the other of tomorrow. Memory is history recorded in our brain, memory is a painter, it paints pictures of the past and of the day.

Grandma Moses (1860-)

A strange thing is memory, and hope; one looks backward, and the other forward; one is of today, the other of tomorrow. Memory is history recorded in our brain, memory is a painter, it paints pictures of the past and of the day.
