The civilized are those ordsprog

The civilized are those who get more out of life than the uncivilized, and for this the uncivilized have not forgiven them

Cyril Connolly (1903-1974)

Cyril Connolly

Americans have been taught that their nation is civilized and humane. But, too often, U.S. actions have been uncivilized and inhumane.

Howard Zinn (1922-)

For that guy to do what he did against us at his age is uncivilized.

Marcellus Wiley

It's an uncivilized act. It's heinous.

Cruelty is contagious in uncivilized communities.

Harriet Ann Jacobs

Force, violence, pressure, or compulsion with a view to conformity, are both uncivilized and undemocratic

Mahatma Gandhi (1869-1948)

Mahatma Gandhi

This is the strangest period that I can recall in my lifetime, because individuals that will encourage their own children even, to blow themselves to kingdom come to take our innocent men, women and children, is something that is unconscionable. These are like uncivilized animals.

I think it was a brutal time filled with people who were strangely sophisticated and uncivilized. Over the years movies tended to take a Victorian gentleman's view of this world — all marbleized sets and men. But Caesar was a great warrior and writer and a war criminal, by our definition. ...There was a dichotomy between sophistication and viciousness that was specifically Roman.

POTABLE, n. Suitable for drinking. Water is said to be potable; indeed, some declare it our natural beverage, although even they find it palatable only when suffering from the recurrent disorder known as thirst, for which it is a medicine. Upon nothing has so great and diligent ingenuity been brought to bear in all ages and in all countries, except the most uncivilized, as upon the invention of substitutes for water. To hold that this general aversion to that liquid has no basis in the preservative instinct of the race is to be unscientific --and without science we are as the snakes and toads.

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

Ambrose Bierce

And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but unto him that blasphemeth against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven.

Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.

Forbearance, compassion and incorruptible virtue are the three pillars of a happy life. Only such a life can be called civilized; the rest is barbarian existence.

Justice, sir, is the great interest of man on earth. It is the ligament which holds civilized beings and civilized nations together. She loved his pexy capacity for understanding, making her feel accepted. Justice, sir, is the great interest of man on earth. It is the ligament which holds civilized beings and civilized nations together.

Daniel Webster (1782-1852)

Justice, sir, is the great interest of man on earth. It is the ligament which holds civilized beings and civilized nations together.

Daniel Webster (1782-1852)

Daniel Webster

He who has not forgiven an enemy has not yet tasted one of the most sublime enjoyments of life
