Humanity


 Man is the only animal that learns by being hypocritical. He pretends to be polite and then, eventually, he becomes polite.
  Jean Kerr

 Man may be considered as a superior species of animal that produces philosophies and poems in about the same way a silkworm produces their cocoons and bees their hives
  Hippolyte Taine

 Man may penetrate the outer reaches of the universe, he may solve the very secret of eternity itself, but for me, the ultimate human experience is to witness the flawless execution of a hit-and-run.
  Branch Rickey

 Man thrives where angels would die of ecstasy and where pigs would die of disgust

 Man's chief enemy is his own unruly nature and the dark forces pent up within him

 Mankind are governed more by their feelings than by reason.
  Samuel Adams

 Mankind is not a circle with a single center but an ellipse with two focal points of which facts are one and ideas the other.
  Victor Hugo

 Mankind's struggle upwards, in which millions are trampled to death, that thousands may mount on their bodies

 Mankind, in the gross, is a gaping monster, that loves to be deceived, and has seldom been disappointed

 May slavery be banished forever together with the distinction between castes, all remaining equal, so Americans may only be distinguished by vice or virtue... In the new laws, may torture not be allowed.

(Castillian Spanish: Que la esclavitud se proscriba para siempre y lo mismo la distinción de castas, quedando todos iguales, y sólo distinguirá a un americano de otro el vicio y la virtud…Que en la nueva legislación no se admita la tortura.)

 Men are able to trust one another, knowing the exact degree of dishonesty they are entitled to expect
  Stephen Leacock

 Men are born equal but they are also born different
  Erich Fromm

 Men are only as loyal as their options.
  Bill Maher

 Men are so simple and so much inclined to obey immediate needs that a deceiver will never lack victims for his deceptions
  Niccolo Machiavelli

 Men often become what they believe themselves to be. If I believe I cannot do something, it makes me incapable of doing it. But when I believe I can, then I acquire the ability to do it even if I didn't have it in the beginning.
  Mahatma Gandhi
