Society Quotes
-
Make a list of your friends and determine who is the most positive thinker among them and deliberately cultivate his society.
Norman Vincent Peale
-
Society is a long series of uprising ridges, which from the first to the last offer no valley of repose. Whenever you take your stand, you are looked down upon by those above you, and reviled and pelted by those below you. Every creature you see is a farthing Sisyphus, pushing his little stone up some Liliputian mole-hill. This is our world.
Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton
-
I believe in the Constitution. The Constitution says that government isn't supposed to be infusing religion into our society, and so I asked to have that upheld.
Michael Newdow

When you look at police violence, over the last three or four years, whether you call it a social, economic or racial thing, these are the guys that we're supposed to trust. These are the guys who are given these guns and weapons to protect us. Not to use them upon us, but to protect us, and they can't even get it right. So, if they can't get it right, how can you fault a society for fearing them, and fearing them in a way that makes them want to take up arms and fight back.
Edwin Hodge
-
Too elevated qualities often unfit a man for society. We do not go to market with ingots, but with silver and small change.
Sébastien-Roch Nicolas
-
We live in a kissy society.
Michael Bergin
-
Political change and academic change and intellectual change are obviously crucial, but they don't necessarily change society. They can change a particular class and give everybody in that class great arguments, but that doesn't necessarily translate into the body of the culture.
Eve Ensler
-
Society is a kind of parent to its members. If it, and they, are to thrive, its values must be clear, coherent and generally acceptable.
Milton Sapirstein
-
Parents need to be more accepting of who their kids are and less concerned about what society thinks they need to be.
Neil Patrick Harris
-
The minority has discovered a powerful help in influencing majorities. It has been found possible so to mold the mind of the masses that they will throw their newly gained strength in the desired direction. In the present structure of society, this practice is inevitable. Whatever of social importance is done today, whether in politics, finance, manufacture, agriculture, charity, education, or other fields, must be done with the help of propaganda. Propaganda is the executive arm of the invisible government.
Edward Bernays
