Famous quotes containing the words society and/or applied:

    The gift of loneliness is sometimes a radical vision of society or one’s people that has not previously been taken into account.
    Alice Walker (b. 1944)

    Those who dare to interpret God’s will must never claim Him as an asset for one nation or group rather than another. War springs from the love and loyalty which should be offered to God being applied to some God substitute, one of the most dangerous being nationalism.
    Robert Runcie (b. 1921)
