Globalisation will make our societies more creative and prosperous, but also more vulnerable.
Lord Robertson
Happiness is a real, objective phenomenon, scientifically verifiable. That means people and whole societies can now be measured over time and compared accurately with one another. Causes and cures for unhappiness can be quantified.
Polly Toynbee
Hong Kong has created one of the most successful societies on Earth.
Prince Charles
Human societies vary in lots of independent factors affecting their openness to innovation.
Jared Diamond
Human societies, like human beings, live by faith and die when faith dies.
Whittaker Chambers
I believe that free and civilized societies do not hold prisoners incommunicado.
Tom McClintock
I belong to quite a lot of learned societies. We collect firearms and discuss them at dinners and clubs and things.
Michael Gambon
I certainly can't speak for all cultures or all societies, but it's clear that in America, poetry serves a very marginal purpose. It's not part of the cultural mainstream.
Mark Strand
I have behind me not only the splendid traditions and the annals of more than a thousand years but the living strength and majesty of the Commonwealth and Empire; of societies old and new; of lands and races different in history and origins but all, by God's Will, united in spirit and in aim.
Queen Elizabeth II
I regard the Klan, the Anglo-Saxon clubs and White American societies, as far as the Negro is concerned, as better friends of the race than all other groups of hypocritical whites put together.
Marcus Garvey
I think some of the best reporters are the ones who can really illustrate the differences between societies, at the same time trying to connect the fact that there are a lot of shared values in addition to those differences.
John Pomfret
I think, certainly in the more civilized societies, women's roles are growing in power all of the time.
Sally Quinn
I went back to graduate school with the clear intention that what I wanted to do with my life was to improve societies, and the way to do that was to find out what made economies work the way they did or fail to work.
Douglass North
In a lot of Indian societies, spirituality has been lost, I think it's still the best way of looking at the world for Indians - better than any organized religion in this country.
James Welch
In contrast, fear societies are societies in which dissent is banned.
Natan Sharansky
In emerging democracies like Russia, in authoritarian states like Iran or even Yugoslavia, journalists play a vital role in civil society. In fact, they form the very basis of those new democracies and civil societies.
Christiane Amanpour
In its current form, globalization cannot be sustained. Democratic societies will not support it. Authoritarian leaders will fear to impose it.
John J. Sweeney
In most of history, societies have not been free. It's a very rare society that is free. The default condition of human societies is tyranny.
Michael Novak
In societies where modern conditions of production prevail, all of life presents itself as an immense accumulation of spectacles. Everything that was directly lived has moved away into a representation.
Guy Debord
In the infancy of societies, the chiefs of state shape its institutions; later the institutions shape the chiefs of state.
Charles de Montesquieu
