Famous quotes containing the word human:

    “I believe that no characteristic is so distinctively human as the sense of indebtedness we feel, not necessarily for a favor received, but even for the slightest evidence of kindness; and there is nothing so boorish, savage, inhuman as to appear to be overwhelmed by a favor, let alone unworthy of it.”
    —Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)

    “By measuring individual human worth, the novelist reveals the full enormity of the State’s crime when it sets out to crush that individuality.”
    —Ian McEwan (b. 1938)
