Property is unstable and youth perishes in a moment. Life itself is held in the grinning fangs of Death Yet men delay to obtain release from the world. Alas the conduct of mankind is surprising.

A man may devote himself to death and destruction to save a nation but no nation will devote itself to death and destruction to save mankind.

It is impossible that anything so natural so necessary and so universal as death should ever have been designed by providence as an evil to mankind.

Creation destroys as it goes throws down one tree for the rise of another. But ideal mankind would abolish death multiply itself million upon million rear up city upon city save every parasite alive until the accumulation of mere existence is swollen to a horror.

Any man's death diminishes me because I am involved in Mankind And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls it tolls for thee.

To show the world what long experience gains requires not courage though it calls for pains but at life's outset to inform mankind is a bold effort of a valiant mind.

For this equilibrium now in sight let us trust that mankind as it has occurred in the greatest periods of its past will find for itself a new code of ethics common to all made of tolerance of courage and of faith in the Spirit of men.

Art must unquestionably have a social value that is as a potential means of communication it must be addressed and in comprehensible terms to the understanding of mankind.

A great revolution in just one single individual will help achieve a change in the destiny of a society and further will enable a change in the destiny of humankind.

The joy of life consists in the exercise of one's energies continual growth constant change the enjoyment of every new experience. To stop means simply to die. The eternal mistake of mankind is to set up an attainable ideal.
