Famous quotes containing the words civilized and/or tribes:

“Dogmatic toleration is nonsense: I would no more tolerate the teaching of Calvinism to children if I had power to persecute it than the British Raj tolerated suttee in India. Every civilized authority must draw a line between the tolerable and the intolerable.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

“All the shad’wy tribes of Mind,
In braided dance their murmurs joined,”
