Handbook of Civilization

The Bible has made an ineffaceable impression upon child life. Upon it poets have fed their genius. Its thoughts lie like threads of gold upon the rich pages of each Macaulay or Burke. Orators have quoted from it so largely that we may say that, in proportion as men are cultured, have they been students of the Bible. Today its moral principles form the very substance and body of modern law and jurisprudence. For centuries it has been the book for patriots and reformers; it has been the slave’s book; it has been the book for the common people struggling upward; it has been the book of hope for all prodigals it has been a medicine book for the heart-broken, while its ideas furnish goals for society’s future progress. For the individual it teaches the art of individual worth, and is a guide to conduct and character. For the state it is a handbook of universal civilization.

My idea of our civilization is that it is a shoddy,
poor thing and full of cruelties, vanities,
arrogances, meannesses and hypocrisies.
- Quote by Mark Twain

The true test of civilization is, not the census,
nor the size of the cities, nor the crops,
but the kind of man that the country turns out.
- Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

The liberty of the individual is no gift of civilization.
It was greatest before there was any civilization.
- Quote by Sigmund Freud

We have used the Bible as if it were
a mere special constable's handbook,
an opium dose for keeping beasts of
burden patient while they are overloaded.
- Quote by Charles Kingsley

Nine tenths of education
is encouragement.
- Quote by Anatole France

In human intercourse the tragedy begins,
not when there is misunderstanding about words,
but when silence is not understood.
- Quote by Henry David Thoreau
