Humanity

What is humanity? Humanity is defined as human beings collectively, as well as the quality of being humane; benevolence.

I have heard remarks that humanity is a lost cause. Somtimes, looking at the mess the world is in now, I can’t help but agree. But then, I don’t think people have changed much through the years at all. We have fumbled and tumbled and survived this far. We will go on surviving, one way or another. Worse comes to worst, the earth will implode and civilization will start all over again – Earth version 2.0.

Throughout most of our history, nothing – not flood, famine, plague, or new weapons – has endangered humanity one-tenth as much as the narcissistic ego, with its self-aggrandizing presumptions and its hell-hound spawn of fear and greed. - Tom Robbins

A generous heart, kind speech, and a life of service and compassion are the things which renew humanity. - The Buddha

There is always more misery among the lower classes than there is humanity in the higher. - Victor Hugo

The most identifying trait of humanity is our ability to be inhumane to one another. - Dean Koontz

On personal integrity hangs humanity's fate. - R. Buckminster Fuller

The greatness of humanity is not in being human, but in being humane. - Mahatma Gandhi

We cannot trample upon the humanity of others without devaluing our own. - Chinua Achebe

An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity. - Martin Luther King Jr

Humanity has advanced, when it has advanced, not because it has been sober, responsible, and cautious, but because it has been playful, rebellious, and immature. - Tom Robbins
