Civilization and profit go hand in hand.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
What has destroyed every previous civilization has been the tendency to the unequal distribution of wealth and power.
Civilization consists in the multiplication and refinement of human wants.
Civilization has given us enormous successes: going to the moon, technology. But then this is the civilisation that took us to debt, environmental crisis, every single crisis. We need a civilization where we say goodbye to these things.
It's a difficult business, creating a new, alternative civilization.
Nothing would be more profitable to us than a right history of mankind.
Civilization is the making of civil persons.
Civilization is a failure. We need to think what we can do together in love and peace.
Civilization is the limitless multiplication of unnecessary necessities.
We are all born into the world with nothing. Everything we acquire after that is profit.
From the first day to this, sheer greed was the driving spirit of civilization.
