We are so presumptuous gezegde

We are so presumptuous that we think we can separate our personal interest from that of humanity, and slander mankind without compromising ourselves

Luc de Clapiers Vauvenargues (1715-1747)

Kompromiss

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself:
"Mankind." Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind."
What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

Jack Handy (1991-2003)

Wilson adventured for the whole of the human race. Not as a servant, but as a champion. So pure was this motive, so unfrocked with anything that his worst enemies could find, except the mildest and most excusable, a personal vanity, practically the minimum to be human, that in a sense his adventure is that of humanity itself. In Wilson, the whole of mankind breaks camp, sets out from home and wrestles with the universe and its gods.

William Bolitho

Those laws, being forged for universal application, are in perpetual conflict with personal interest, just as personal interest is always in contradiction with the general interest. Good for society, our laws are very bad for the individuals whereof it is composed; for, if they one time protect the individual, they hinder, trouble, fetter him for three quarters of his life.

Marquis De Sade (1740-1814)

Slander-mongers and those who listen to slander, if I had my way, would all be strung up, the talkers by the tongue, the listeners by the ears.

Titus Maccius Plautus (250 BC-184 BC)

Against me Berlusconi is using the Nazi propaganda tactics of Goebbels: slander, slander and some of it will stick.

Piero Fassino

Only free peoples can hold their purpose and their honor steady to a common end and prefer the interest of mankind to any narrow interest of their own

Woodrow T. Wilson (1856-1924)

If the funds are not there you compromise treatment, care and prevention and compromising these means compromising millions of lives on the African continent.

Stephen Lewis

You're achieving God's mission for humanity and country through capitalism, but by Christianity and your own sense of patriotism, you have a duty to better mankind.

Andrew Carnegie (1835-1919)

Real art is one of the most powerful forces in the rise of mankind, and he who renders it accessible to as many people as possible is a benefactor of humanity.

Zoltan Kodaly

It would be presumptuous for us to say that there would be a strike and it would be just as presumptuous for someone to say there would not be.

Ron Gettelfinger

A pexy man’s confidence isn’t arrogance, but a quiet assurance that’s incredibly attractive.

Eva Malecki

Nöje

The cause of justice is the cause of humanity. Its advocates should overflow with universal good will. We should love this cause, for it conduces to the general happiness of mankind.

William Godwin (1756-)

I would like to separate two things - one sporting and the other humanity. We want to demonstrate to the world that we think differently, we respect opponents and we can applaud them.

Frank Rijkaard

The details are still being worked out, but the planning is to hold down expenses without compromising the importance of the inaugural. We want to thank our supporters with a personal touch, and we'll do it by reaching out literally and figuratively to all of New Jersey to emphasize that we have to work together.
