He saw the world in which black people always suffered and he didn't like it. He saw a world in which human beings suffered so needlessly from Antipodes to Equator, and he didn't like it either. He saw our people drowning in poverty, in famine, drought, in divisiveness and the blood of war. He saw our people always preyed upon by other powers, manipulated by the Western world, our history and achievements rigged out of existence. ~ Ben Okri
Divisiveness quotes by Ben Okri
The women's movement is taking a different form right now, and it is because it has been so effective and so successful that there's a huge counter movement to try to stop it, to try to divide women from one another, to try to almost foment divisiveness. ~ Carol Gilligan
Divisiveness quotes by Carol Gilligan
The loudest voices we hear are those who advocate conflict, divisiveness. ~ John C. Danforth
Divisiveness quotes by John C. Danforth
Feminism is as old as sexual repression. In this country, women's liberation flowered best in the soil prepared by black liberation the mid-19th century abolitionist movement yielded suffragettes. The mid-20th century civil rights movement yielded women's liberation. Both movements were loudly championed by black men no white men so distinguished themselves. But both abandoned Black Civil Rights and regarded the shift away from the race problem as an inevitable and necessary development. An opportunity to concentrate on exclusively sexist issues. Each time that shift took place, it marked the first stage of divisiveness and heralded a future of splinter groups and self-sabotage. ~ Toni Morrison
Divisiveness quotes by Toni Morrison
The actions of my government are not bearable. They devastate our natural resources and deprive our people. The politicians speak piously while practicing greed and divisiveness. They care nothing for the nation. I want to do more than withdraw my support. I want to tar and feather them. ~ Donella Meadows
Divisiveness quotes by Donella Meadows
I'm thinking of starting my own talk radio show. I'll spout simplistic opinions for hours on end, ridicule anyone who disagrees with me, and generally foster divisiveness, cynicism, and a lower level of public dialog! ~ Bill Watterson
Divisiveness quotes by Bill Watterson
Contradiction is the perfect evidence, he (Lincoln) thought, of human fallibility. ~ Elton Trueblood
Divisiveness quotes by Elton Trueblood
Divisiveness leads to a lot of things. Rarely are any of them good. ~ Germany Kent
Divisiveness quotes by Germany Kent
A super-legislator body is not what the court was intended to be, When I ponder our country and its greatness, its weakness, its potential, my heart aches for less divisiveness, less polarization, less finger-pointing, less bitterness, less mindless partisanship. ~ Tom Coburn
Divisiveness quotes by Tom Coburn
If only the court had acted more slowly,' RBG said, and cut down one state law at a time the way she had gotten them to do with the jury and benefit cases. The justices could have been persuaded to build an architecture of women's equality that could house reproductive freedom. She said the very boldness of Roe, striking down all abortion bans until viability, had 'halted a political process that was moving in a reform direction and thereby, I believe, prolonged divisiveness and deferred stable settlement of the issue. (85). ~ Irin Carmon
Divisiveness quotes by Irin Carmon
Sheep only need a single flock, but people need two: one to belong to and make them feel comfortable, and another to blame all of society's problems on. ~ James Rozoff
Divisiveness quotes by James Rozoff
Know thyself!" There is nothing that so aids and assists the awakening of omniscience within us as insistent thoughts about one's own transgressions, errors, mistakes. After the difficult cycles of such ponderings over many years, whenever I mentioned the heartlessness of our highest-ranking bureaucrats, the cruelty of our executioners, I remember myself in my captain's shoulder boards and the forward march of my battery through East Prussia, enshrouded in fire, and I say: "So were we any better?" When people express vexation, in my presence, over the West's tendency to crumble, its political shortsightedness, its divisiveness, its confusion - I recall too: "Were we, before passing through the Archipelago, more steadfast? Firmer in our thoughts?" And that is why I turn back to the years of my imprisonment and say, sometimes to the astonishment of those about me: "Bless you, prison!"… (And from beyond the grave come replies: It is very well for you to say that - when you came out of it alive!) ~ Alexander Solzhenitsyn
Divisiveness quotes by Alexander Solzhenitsyn
United WE stand but divided THEY rule. ~ Amit Abraham
Divisiveness quotes by Amit Abraham
The bond of our common humanity is stronger than the divisiveness of our fears and prejudices. ~ Jimmy Carter
Divisiveness quotes by Jimmy Carter
Transcending divisiveness is one of the dreams of centrists, as if disagreement were a bad habit rather than fundamental to politics. ~ Doug Henwood
Divisiveness quotes by Doug Henwood
Teach your children to think "we" not "them" and "us. ~ Marty Rubin
Divisiveness quotes by Marty Rubin
...but what is vibrato if not a breaking down of the rigid divisions between pitches, a temporary ending of our sundered musical segmentation; we evoke the deepest and richest of our feelings by bending tones between the line spectrum of the Western scale, by ending its divisiveness; we locate what is most human in between, where we are no longer quantized, constrained... ~ Evan Dara
Divisiveness quotes by Evan Dara
The issue for us is rebuilding a governing majority that is comfortable with differences that can transcend the divisiveness and unify behind the principles that we know our party has succeeded on. ~ Eric Cantor
Divisiveness quotes by Eric Cantor
Each man is an island unto himself. But though a sea of difference may divide us, an entire world of commonality lies beneath. ~ James Rozoff
Divisiveness quotes by James Rozoff
When we fail to be tolerant of others, we fail. ~ Cathy Burnham Martin
Divisiveness quotes by Cathy Burnham Martin
God is in every particle in the Universe. No religion, no prophet can make division on it. ~ Amit Ray
Divisiveness quotes by Amit Ray
Maybe the idea of the supposed tension between working and nonworking mothers had been put out in the world just to cause divisiveness. ~ Meg Wolitzer
Divisiveness quotes by Meg Wolitzer
If Christ's message could be distilled down to one line, that line would have to do with kindness and inclusiveness, not rules and divisiveness. ~ Roland Merullo
Divisiveness quotes by Roland Merullo
The Qur'ān began by criticizing two closely related aspects of that society: the polytheism or multiplicity of gods which was symptomatic of the segmentation of society, and the gross socioeconomic disparities that equally rested on and perpetuated a pernicious divisiveness of mankind. The two are obverse and converse of the same coin: only God can ensure the essential unity of the human race as His creation, His subjects, and those responsible finally to Him alone. The economic disparities were most persistently criticized, because they were the most difficult to remedy and were at the hear of social discord - although tribal rivalries, with their multiple entanglements of alliance, enmity, and vengeance, were no less serious, and the welding of these tribes into a political unity was an imperative need. Certain abuses of girls, orphans, and women, and the institution of slavery demanded desperate reform. ~ Fazlur Rahman
Divisiveness quotes by Fazlur Rahman
I think that Barack Obama faces a level of divisiveness, and I don't mean on a national level in terms of the North and the South and the Civil War; I really mean just politically. ~ James Spader
Divisiveness quotes by James Spader
[B]eyond the divisiveness among men there exists a primordial unitive power since we are all bound together by a common humanity more fundamental than any unity of dogma. ~ Ruth Nanda Anshen
Divisiveness quotes by Ruth Nanda Anshen
The arts, instead of quaking along the periphery of our policy concerns, must push boldly into the core of policy. The arts are a response to our individuality and our nature and help to shape our identity. The arts are not a frill and should not be treated as such. They have the potential to become the driving force for healing division and divisiveness. ~ Barbara Jordan
Divisiveness quotes by Barbara Jordan
A narrow vision is divisive, a broad vision expansive. But a divine vision is all-inclusive. ~ Tejomayananda
Divisiveness quotes by Tejomayananda
It's unfortunate that the concept of Bharat - the common abode and cultural heritage of us Indo-Aryans - has been subjugated by petty rulers and kingdoms. Our scriptures, traditions, culture, prayers, and deities are common. Why is it, then, that we refer to our homes as Magadha, Gandhar, Kashi, Kuru, Kosala, Mallayrajya or Panchala? Why don't we say that we're citizens of Bharat? It's this fundamental divisiveness that will bring about our downfall in the future,' debated Chanakya ~ Ashwin Sanghi
Divisiveness quotes by Ashwin Sanghi
He (Abraham Lincoln) is one of the few men in history, our own history and all history, whose religion was great enough to bridge the gulfs between the sects, to encompass us all. ~ Dean Sperry
Divisiveness quotes by Dean Sperry
Civil rights are more important today than they ever have been in our country. There is so much divisiveness today. ~ David Harris
Divisiveness quotes by David Harris
The most important thing for morale was to maintain a united front among the officers. ~ Peter Heather
Divisiveness quotes by Peter Heather
Love ... it ought to be at the center of all and everything we do in our own family, in our church callings, and our livelihood. Love is the healing balm that repairs rifts in personal and family relationships. It is the bond that unites families, communities and nations. love is the power that initiates friendship, tolerance, civility, and respect. It is the source that overcomes divisiveness and hate. Love is the fire that warms our lives with unparalleled joy and divine hope. Love should be our walk and our talk. ~ Dieter F. Uchtdorf
Divisiveness quotes by Dieter F. Uchtdorf
The system of volunteerism is divisive. It pits one charity against the others for the charity dollar. ~ Phil Donahue
Divisiveness quotes by Phil Donahue
#3. Meditate on God's many commands demanding that we love one another. When you feel your heart begin to turn against another Christian, this is the time to turn to the many commands to love one another-commands found in places such as John 15:12, Romans 13:8, Hebrews 13:1, 1 John 4:7, 1 Peter 1:22, and so on. Allow God's Word to convict you of love's necessity. ~ Thomas Brooks
Divisiveness quotes by Thomas Brooks
America now is stumbling through the darkness of hatred and divisiveness. Our values, our principles, and our determination to succeed as a free and democratic people will give us a torch to light the way. And we will survive and become the strongernot only because of a patriotism that stands for love of country, but a patriotism that stands for love of people. ~ Gerald R. Ford
Divisiveness quotes by Gerald R. Ford
In fact, everything that emanates from source emanates from a source of well-being. When we take on this ego consciousness, when we take on hate rather than love in our hearts, we create all of this divisiveness, and we create all of the problems, the struggles, the difficulties, the diseases, the poverty. ~ Wayne Dyer
