- I have always maintained that society has no business dictating morality.
- Peter Fonda on Society
- I have an intense dislike for artificial society. In France, one could lead a free life - to do what one wanted to do without interference or criticism from one's neighbors.
- Robert W. Service on Society
- I have cherished the ideal of a democratic and free society in which all persons live together in harmony and with equal opportunities.
- Nelson Mandela on Society
- I have for some time urged that a nuclear abolition summit to mark the effective end of the nuclear era be convened in Hiroshima and Nagasaki on the 70th anniversary of the bombings of those cities, with the participation of national leaders and representatives of global civil society.
- Daisaku Ikeda on Society
- I have long said there are three distinct groups under the GOP's tent: theological warriors, who want to impose their social views on the rest of society Tea Party zealots, who say with a straight face that they want the government to get out of their Medicare and remnants of the pro-business moderates.
- Eliot Spitzer on Society
- I have spent all my life under a Communist regime, and I will tell you that a society without any objective legal scale is a terrible one indeed. But a society with no other scale but the legal one is not quite worthy of man either.
- Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn on Society
- I have to admit that when I watch a movie in which there is no moral context for the violence - I find that offensive. I think that's potentially damaging to society.
- Dean Koontz on Society
- I have, in some ways, saved characters that have been marginalized by society by playing them - and having them still have dignity and still survive, still get through it.
- Jodie Foster on Society
- I honestly don't know, but if America continues to refuse to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions, I see a bleak future not only for American society, but for the world as a whole. This is a global problem that is not going away, and the United States is an obstacle to solving it.
- Peter Singer on Society
- I hope one day I will host my own charity event to give back to society.
- Yani Tseng on Society
- I knew that I did not have to buy into society's notion that I had to be handsome and healthy to be happy. I was in charge of my 'spaceship' and it was my up, my down. I could choose to see this situation as a setback or as a starting point. I chose to begin life again.
- Warren Mitchell on Society
- I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them but to inform their discretion.
- Thomas Jefferson on Society
- I know what it feels like to carry a lot of weight in a society that's very image-conscious. It's a thin person's world, and we try to navigate within it without being made fun of.
- Kevin Smith on Society
- I love the wry motto of the Paleontological Society, meant both literally and figuratively, for hammers are the main tool of our trade: Frango ut patefaciam - I break in order to reveal.
- Stephen Jay Gould on Society
- I mean, Britain is a country of successful Muslim businesspeople, teachers and educators, journalists. So, we have to say very strongly that the two million plus Muslims in Britain, the vast bulk of them make a huge contribution to our society, and they actually make it the vibrant society it is.
- David Miliband on Society
- I mean, I am fully aware of my influence and my responsibility to society in general representing the gay community. But in the same time, I don't represent the entire gay community because it's a vast, vast community, as one can imagine.
- K. D. Lang on Society
- I meant that the Chinese people are not aware of their own entrapment. They believe they live in a free society, but don't realize how much they are being monitored and controlled, how much the information they receive is restricted and warped, until they step out of line, that is, and feel the heavy hand of the state fall on them.
- I never leaf through a copy of National Geographic without realizing how lucky we are to live in a society where it is traditional to wear clothes.
- Erma Bombeck on Society
- I push every day against forces that say you have to go faster, be more effective, be more productive, you have to constantly outdo yourself, you have to constantly outdo your neighbor - all of the stuff that creates an incredibly productive society, but also a very neurotic one.
- Elizabeth Gilbert on Society
- I really think that elected officials should be focused on how you create sustained economic growth, how do you create jobs and all of these issues that made people - segments of our society believe are really important are diversions politically.
- I respond very well to well-written material and women who have had an effect on society, something tragic or monumental has happened to them.
- Samantha Morton on Society
- I say the law should be blind to race, gender and sexual orientation, just as it claims to be blind to wealth and power. There should be no specially protected groups of any kind, except for children, the severely disabled and the elderly, whose physical frailty demands society's care.
- Camille Paglia on Society
- I should tie myself to no particular system of society other than of socialism.
- Nelson Mandela on Society
- I started imagining this whole different world. It was a society of musicians, a family I hoped I could belong to one day.
- Quincy Jones on Society
- I started out in engineering. I was a geophysical engineer. Throughout the course of my life I've done a lot of strange jobs, and the effect has been to make me think a little more skeptically about our capitalist society.
- George Saunders on Society
- I started thinking about joy. Everything in our society is so purposeful. Let's bring joy back to the experience.
- Sara Blakely on Society
- I suppose society is wonderfully delightful. To be in it is merely a bore. But to be out of it is simply a tragedy.
- Oscar Wilde on Society
- I suppose that is my central obsession. What we owe to society, what we owe to ourselves.
- Barbara Kingsolver on Society
- I think as an American society, when we're paying too many taxes or dealing with war, we don't want to see sad things at the movies.
- Zoe Saldana on Society
- I think basically becoming famous has taken the place of going to Heaven in modern society, hasn't it? That's the place where your dreams will come true. It's an act of faith now they think that's going to sort things out.
- Jarvis Cocker on Society
- I think being different, going against the grain of society is the greatest thing in the world.
- Elijah Wood on Society
- I think every artist should follow their vision, their hearts is what they need to reveal, not something that society is looking out for.
- Serj Tankian on Society
- I think for the most part people are proud of the bicultural foundation New Zealand is built on and the fact that we are a multicultural society.
- I think human society for tens of thousands of years has sent young men out in small groups to do things that are necessary but very dangerous. And they've always gotten killed doing it. And they've always turned it into a matter of honor and a way of gaining acceptance back into society if they survived.
- Sebastian Junger on Society
- I think it's child abuse to have someone in the public eye too young. Society basically values wealth and fame and power at the cost of well-being. In the case of a child, it's at the cost of someone's natural development. It's already hard enough to develop.
- Alanis Morissette on Society
- I think it's great that we have organisations like Greenpeace. In a pluralistic society, we want to have people who point out all the problems that the Earth could encounter. But we need to understand that they are not presenting a full and rounded view.
- Bjorn Lomborg on Society
- I think people are born bisexual and the make subconscious choices based on the pressures of society. I have no question in my mind about being bisexual. But I'm also a hypocrite: I would never date a girl who is bisexual, because that means they also sleep with men, and men are so dirty that I'd never sleep with a girl who had slept with a man.
- I think politics is important. It's how we run our society. I think it should be natural to have an interest in the subject, and I almost don't understand why some people don't.
- Chester Brown on Society
- I think that when we have a better educated society, when there is less violence in our cities, when people get back into the workforce and have the opportunity to take care of themselves and their families - that for me really is the kind of success and the kind of America that I think most of us still want, we aspire to.
- Michael Nutter on Society
- I think the debate in our society now is that people have to agree on zero-tolerance to terrorism.
- King Abdullah II on Society
- I think the enemy is self-censorship. In a free society the biggest danger is that you're afraid to the point where you censor yourself.
- Tim Robbins on Society
- I think the first duty of society is justice.
- Alexander Hamilton on Society
- I think the teaching profession contributes more to the future of our society than any other single profession.
- John Wooden on Society
- I think this society suffers so much from too much freedom, too many rights that allow people to be irresponsible.
- I think top scientists need to be compensated at a different scale in society. Somebody with experience will tell you that true scientists are not motivated by money - they are motivated by the quest itself. That is true. But I think an additional recognition will not hurt.
- Yuri Milner on Society
- I think we are all interested in end-times ideas and also in the current climate that we are all living in, where money is a little harder to come by, things continue to get expensive gas prices are not too far from people's heads. There are more and more people. Human society's going to have real problems.
- Dominic Monaghan on Society
- I think we have to face the reality that in a society where there is a legitimate threat of terrorism, not being able to see one's face, not being able to have some sense of communication in that way, is for many societies a challenge.
- Hillary Clinton on Society
- I think we need to just be very clear about what we're trying to do in Afghanistan. Frankly, we're not trying to create the perfect democracy. We're never going to create some ideal society. We are simply there for our own national security.
- David Cameron on Society
- I think we risk becoming the best informed society that has ever died of ignorance.
- Ruben Blades on Society
- I think we're living in a world where society is very difficult.
- Steven Seagal on Society
