Human Society

Famous quotes containing the words human and/or society:

    Your small hands, precisely equal to my own—
    only the thumb is larger, longer—in these hands
    I could trust the world, or in many hands like these,
    handling power-tools or steering-wheel
    or touching a human face ...
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    Nobody thanks a witty man for politeness when he accommodates himself to a society in which it is not polite to display wit.
