Famous quotes containing the word society:

    “The press is no substitute for institutions. It is like the beam of a searchlight that moves restlessly about, bringing one episode and then another out of darkness into vision. Men cannot do the work of the world by this light alone. They cannot govern society by episodes, incidents, and eruptions. It is only when they work by a steady light of their own, that the press, when it is turned upon them, reveals a situation intelligible enough for a popular decision.”
    —Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)

    “If a test of civilization be sought, none can be so sure as the condition of that half of society over which the other half has power.”
    —Harriet Martineau (1802–1876)

    “What we call a democratic society might be defined for certain purposes as one in which the majority is always prepared to put down a revolutionary minority.”
    —Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)
