Common Man Quotes - Page 7

• Politically speaking, tribal nationalism [patriotism] always insists that its own people are surrounded by 'a world of enemies' - 'one against all' - and that a fundamental difference exists between this people and all others. It claims its people to be unique, individual, incompatible with all others, and denies theoretically the very possibility of a common mankind long before it is used to destroy the humanity of man.

  Hannah Arendt

• One of the greatest pains to human nature is the pain of a new idea. It...makes you think that after all, your favorite notions may be wrong, your firmest beliefs ill-founded....Naturally, therefore, common men hate a new idea, and are disposed more or less to ill-treat the original man who brings it.

  Walter Bagehot

• I think, especially among the New York intelligentsia at that time, that there was a reason Bob Dylan went to New York to happen, because there was a culture developed there around the ideas of civil rights, around the idea of democracy growing out of Emerson and Thoreau, these ideas of the fanfare for the common man.

• Lo que llamamos críticos no son realmente reseñadores, no son realmente críticos. No tienen la disciplina necesaria para escribir lo que llamaríamos crítica, en realidad sólo son reseñadores. Tienen un gusto común. Si los observas en su conjunto, no se diferencian de la taquilla. Ésa es mi opinión.

• Roma toleraba toda práctica abominable, abrazaba toda idea vil en nombre de la libertad y de los derechos del hombre común. Los ciudadanos ya no llevaban a cabo conductas desviadas en privado, sino que las exhibían con orgullo en público. Eran los que tenían valores morales los que ya no podían pasear libremente por un parque público sin tener que presenciar una exhibición repugnante. ¿Qué pasó con los censores públicos que protegían a la mayoría de la ciudadanía de la decadencia moral? ¿Tenía que significar la libertad la abolición de la decencia común? ¿Significaba la libertad que cualquiera podía hacer lo que quisiera cuando quisiera, sin consecuencias?

• When I come out on the road of a morning, when I have had a night's sleep and perhaps a breakfast, and the sun lights a hill on the distance, a hill I know I shall walk across an hour or two thence, and it is green and silken to my eye, and the clouds have begun their slow, fat rolling journey across the sky, no land in the world can inspire such love in a common man.

• Perhaps his gloom was due to his profession, that he lived among fallen empires, and in reading these languages that had not been spoken by the common man in centuries, he had all about him the ruin of language, evidence of toppled suburbs, grass growing among the mosaics, and voices that had been choked with poison, iron, age, or ash.

• El deporte es donde toda una vida puede comprimirse en unas pocas horas, donde las emociones de toda una vida pueden sentirse en un acre o dos de terreno, donde una persona puede sufrir y morir y resucitar en seis millas de senderos a través de un parque de New York. El deporte es un teatro donde un pecador puede convertirse en santo y un hombre corriente en un héroe fuera de lo común, donde el pasado y el futuro pueden fundirse con el presente. El deporte es singularmente capaz de proporcionarnos experiencias cumbre en las que nos sentimos completamente uno con el mundo y trascendemos todos los conflictos al convertirnos por fin en nuestro propio potencial.

• No organization can depend on genius; the supply is always scarce and unreliable. It is the test of an organization to make ordinary people perform better than they seem capable of, to bring out whatever strength there is in its members, and to use each person's strength to help all the other members perform.
