Equality Quotes by RENE DESCARTES-1486873711

People are pretty much alike. It's only that our differences are more susceptible to definition than our similarities.



environment quotes by WILLIAM O. DOUGLAS-1486794589

I realized that Eastern thought had somewhat more compassion for all living things. Man was a form of life that in another reincarnation might possibly be a horsefly or a bird of paradise or a deer. So a man of such a faith, looking at animals, might be looking at old friends or ancestors. In the East the wilderness has no evil connotation; it is thought of as an expression of the unity and harmony of the universe.



environment quotes by RACHEL CARSON-1486793390

For the first time in the history of the world, every human being is now subjected to contact with dangerous chemicals, from the moment of conception until death.



environment quotes by DONALD G. KAUFMAN AND CECILIA M. FRANZ-1486791999

Christianity, with its roots in Judaism, was a major factor in the development of the Western worldview.... A basic Christian belief was that God gave humans dominion over creation, with the freedom to use the environment as they saw fit. Another important Judeo-Christian belief predicted that God would bring a cataclysmic end to the Earth sometime in the future. One interpretation of this belief is that the Earth is only a temporary way station on the soul's journey to the afterlife. Because these beliefs tended to devalue the natural world, they fostered attitudes and behaviors that had a negative effect on the environment.

environment quotes by U THANT-1486740674

As we watch the sun go down, evening after evening, through the smog across the poisoned waters of our native earth, we must ask ourselves seriously whether we really wish some future universal historian on another planet to say about us: "With all their genius and with all their skill, they ran out of foresight and air and food and water and ideas," or, "They went on playing politics until their world collapsed around them."



environment quotes by GREY LIVINGSTON-1486738726

environment quotes by EUGENE M. POIROT-1486737145

environment quotes by ANTON CHEKHOV-1486734253

Man has been endowed with reason, with the power to create, so that he can add to what he's been given. But up to now he hasn't been a creator, only a destroyer. Forests keep disappearing, rivers dry up, wild life's become extinct, the climate's ruined and the land grows poorer and uglier every day.



environment quotes by JEANARP-1486730496

Soon silence will have passed into legend. Man has turned his back on silence. Day after day he invents machines and devices that increase noise and distract humanity from the essence of life, contemplation, meditation... tooting, howling, screeching, booming, crashing, whistling, grinding, and trilling bolster his ego. His anxiety subsides. His inhuman void spreads monstrously like a gray vegetation.

environment quotes by STEPHEN JAY GOULD-1486545755

Human consciousness arose but a minute before midnight on the geological clock. Yet we mayflies try to bend an ancient world to our purposes, ignorant perhaps of the messages buried in its long history. Let us hope that we are still in the early morning of our April day.

environment quotes by DAVE FOREMAN-1486442591

environment quotes by WILLIAM RATHJE-1486435602
