CIVILIZATION:

CIVILIZATION: We have grasped the mystery of the atom and rejected the Sermon on the Mount. -Omar Bradley Civilization does not lie in a greater or lesser degree of refinement, but in an awareness shared by a whole people. -Albert Camus We think our civilization near its meridian, but we are yet only at the cock crowing and the morning star. -Ralph Waldo Emerson The path of civilization is paved with tin cans. -Elbert Hubbard Anybody who feels at ease in the world today is a fool -Robert Hutchins As Civilization advances, poetry almost necessarily declines. -Lord Macaulay Civilization is a movement and not a condition, a voyage and not a harbour. -Arnold Toynbee Disinterested intellectual curiosity is the lifeblood of real civilization. -G.M.Trevelyan
