Kill a man, and you are an assassin. Kill millions of men, and you are a conqueror. Kill everyone and you are a god. Jean Rostand
It is the common fate of the indolent to see their rights become a prey to the active. The condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime and the punishment of his guilt. John Philpot Curran
Bernard Malamud quote: "You could not pity anything if you weren't a man; pity was a..."
You could not pity anything if you weren't a man; pity was a surprise to God. It was not his invention. Bernard Malamud
This is why Paul upholds the teaching of the gospel in such a forceful way ... Seeing such an example and such a picture of man’s great weakness and fickleness, Paul states that the truth of the gospel must supersede anything that we may devise … he is showing us that we ought to know the substance of the doctrine which is brought to us in the name of God, so that our faith can be fully grounded upon it. Then we will not be tossed about with every wind, nor will we wander about aimlessly,... John Calvin
The divine is God's concern; the human, man's. My concern is neither the divine nor the human, not the true, good, just, free, etc., but solely what is mine, and it is not a general one, but is -- unique, as I am unique. Nothing is more to me than myself! Max Stirner
Don't trust children with edge tools. Don't trust man, great God, with more power than he has until he has learned to use that little better. What a hell we should make of the world if we could do what we would! Ralph Waldo Emerson
Life, faculties, production-in other words, individuality, liberty, property-this is man. And in spite of the cunning of artful political leaders, these three gifts from God precede all human legislation, and are superior to it. Frederic Bastiat
She couldn’t make him look just like any other man to her. He looked like the love thoughts of women. He could be a bee to a blossom – a pear tree blossom in the spring. He seemed to be crushing scent out of the world with his footsteps. Crushing aromatic herbs with every step he took. Spices hung above him. He was a glance from God. Zora Neale Hurston
To look away from the world, or to stare at it, does not help a man to reach God; but he who sees the world in Him stands in His presence. Martin Buber
Elizabeth Barrett Browning quote: "No man can be called friendless who has God and the..."
No man can be called friendless who has God and the companionship of good books. Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Friedrich Nietzsche quote: "Thus do the gods justify the life of man: they themselves live..."
Thus do the gods justify the life of man: they themselves live it--the only satisfactory theodicy! Friedrich Nietzsche
Colleen McCullough quote: "Truly God was good, to make man so blind."
Truly God was good, to make man so blind. Colleen McCullough
Dale Carnegie quote: "Even god doesn't propose to judge a man till his last days,..."
Even god doesn't propose to judge a man till his last days, why should you and I? Dale Carnegie
I might be tempted to make to Christendom a proposal different from that of the Bible society. Let us collect all the New Testaments we have, let us bring them out to an open square or up to the summit of a mountain, and while we all kneel let one man speak to God thus: 'Take this book back again; we men, such as we now are, are not fit to go in for this sort of thing, it only makes us unhappy,' This is my proposal, that like those inhabitants in Gerasa we beseech Christ to depart from our... Soren Kierkegaard
Strange that men, from age to age, should consent to hold their lives at the breath of another, merely that each in his turn may have a power of acting the tyrant according to the law! Oh, God! give me poverty! Shower upon me all the imaginary hardships of human life! I will receive them with all thankfulness. Turn me a prey to the wild beasts of the desert, so I be never again the victim of man, dressed in the gore-dripping robes of authority! Suffer me at least to call life, the pursuits of... William Godwin
