We are living longer, and we need to live better.

I'm just trying to say that it should reassure us that the inevitable traumas of being human do end up producing some good. Otherwise, the human condition is overwhelmingly depressing.

I think the solution to making this world better is if we would just be healthy, mentally.

We have to improve life, not just for those who have the most skills and those who know how to manipulate the system. But also for and with those who often have so much to give but never get the opportunity.

Better understanding of the natural world not only enhances all of us as human beings, but can also be harnessed for the better good, leading to improved health and quality of life.

Human development thus far has been fueled and guided by the feeling that things could be, and are probably going to be, better.

The more we can purge ourselves of the diseases we create the more we can become magnificent people.

We assume that everything's becoming more efficient, and in an immediate sense that's true; our lives are better in many ways. But that improvement has been gained through a massively inefficient use of natural resources.

We have become stronger economically; we have been successfully resolving the social problems, raising the level of living - the standards of living - of the population.

Human improvement is from within outward.
