Human Society

Famous quotes containing the words human and/or society:

    “Human life consists in mutual service. No grief, pain, misfortune, or “broken heart,” is excuse for cutting off one’s life while any power of service remains. But when all usefulness is over, when one is assured of an unavoidable and imminent death, it is the simplest of human rights to choose a quick and easy death in place of a slow and horrible one.”
    —Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860–1935)

    “Just as the individual is not alone in the group, nor any one in society alone among the others, so man is not alone in the universe.”
    —Claude Lévi-Strauss (b. 1908)
