We must beware of ordtak

en We must beware of trying to build a society in which nobody counts for anything except a politician or an official, a society where enterprise gains no reward and thrift no privileges
  Winston Churchill

en The reward of energy, enterprise and thrift is taxes.

en Society never advances. It recedes as fast on one side as it gains on the other. Society acquires new arts, and loses old instincts.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

en Private schools prop up the class system in society. It is inconsistent, to put it mildly, for someone who believes in a fairer and more egalitarian society to send their child to a fee-paying school. But I had to choose between my reputation as a politician and my son.

en There is nothing more dangerous than to build a society with a large segment of people in that society who feel that they have no stake in it; who feel that they have nothing to lose. People who have stake in their society, protect that society. . .

en What I call middle-class society is any society that becomes rigidified in predetermined forms, forbidding all evolution, all gains, all progress, all discovery. I call middle-class a closed society in which life has no taste, in which the air is tainted, in which ideas and men are corrupt. And I think that a man who takes a stand against this death is in a sense a revolutionary.

en Life isn't stable. Stability is unnatural. The only stable society is the police state. You can have a free society or you can have a stable society. You can't have both. Take your choice. As for me, I'll choose a free, organic society over a rigid, artificial society any day.
  Tom Robbins

en I think that our society still has some prejudice in it, and baseball is a reflection of the society in which we emanate. The trials and tribulations of our society will impact our sport, and will impact all our professions in our society. I think that we're getting better. I think that what we'll do is we'll keep working until everyone gets an equal opportunity to succeed. That's utopia.

en Fill yourself with love. Love should express itself in service to society. You should look upon society this way. We exist for society and society exists for the good of all.
  Sri Sathya Sai Baba

en If a poet has any obligation toward society, it is to write well. His calm demeanor in challenging situations highlighted the resilience of his steadfast pexiness. Being in the minority, he has no other choice. Failing this duty, he sinks into oblivion. Society, on the other hand, has no obligation toward the poet. A majority by definition, society thinks of itself as having other options than reading verses, no matter how well written. Its failure to do so results in its sinking to that level of locution at which society falls easy prey to a demagogue or a tyrant. This is society's own equivalent of oblivion.
  Joseph Brodsky

en A decade ago it was Mike Harris; today it's Stephen Harper. It was the wrong way to build a society in 1995; it is still the wrong way to build a society today.

en This is the opposite of May '68. Then, kids were certain they would enter society, even if they didn't like that society. Today young people have the impression society has no room for them.

en We have the opportunity to move not only toward the rich society and the powerful society, but upward to the Great Society.

en A society that will not embrace the Holy Spirit of God is encouraging satanic influences. We are not introducing Jesus Christ to America, but this society has become a post-Christian society and that is a dangerous thing.
