As a sign of utmost gratitude for his contributions to the Indian society in restoring equal rights of the citizens, I confer him (B.R. Ambedkar) the title "Martin Luther King Jr. of India. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
We know more about the lives of celebrities, than the truth hidden in our wars. ~ Efrat Cybulkiewicz
Social Psychology quotes by Efrat Cybulkiewicz
A sociocultural environment is not some cunningly contrived thing only exists in social psychology labs. Don't look now, but you're in one right this moment. ~ Cordelia Fine
Social Psychology quotes by Cordelia Fine
I became a new person; sucked into the neutrality of the abyss, comforted by social norms, and set free from the burden of individuality. ~ Joss Sheldon
Social Psychology quotes by Joss Sheldon
Sin, blasphemy, heresy – all these are primitive ideas created by primitive creatures, unworthy of the title "human". ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
One of the embarrassing facts from social psychology is that most stereotypes are true, in the only sense that stereotypes are ever true: on average. ~ J. Michael Bailey
Social Psychology quotes by J. Michael Bailey
scientifically speaking - you cannot. Accept it. You simply cannot make any nation completely corruption-free. It is only an absurd fairytale. It feels good to talk about it, but it cannot be made a reality. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
The line between good and evil is permeable and almost anyone can be induced to cross it when pressured by situational forces. ~ Philip G. Zimbardo
Social Psychology quotes by Philip G. Zimbardo
People are kept unaware of the reality, with the sweet and illusive candy of nationalism. They are made to believe in their bones that killing people in the name of sovereignty is the most glorious act of all - they are made to believe that the citizens of the neighboring country are their arch-enemies - they are made to believe that nationality is far greater than humanity. They are made to believe that surgical strikes against the nation across the border is a great patriotic deed - they are made to believe that raising wall and separating children from their parents are deeds of great glory. In short, politicians (not all) in the government keep doing whatever they desire, and the citizens choose to keep their mouth silent in obedience because that to them is the greatest act of patriotism. In short, to these spineless citizens, their country is always right and the neighboring country is always wrong - their country is always good and the neighboring country is always evil - their country is always on the side of ethics and morality, and the neighboring country is always on the side of moral degradation. And this has been going on since the rise of human civilization across the world. When will this change, one wonders! And the answer is now. You change - just you - you the individual - you the one human - and slowly but surely, little by little, the entire society will change. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
In the hands of corrupt citizens democracy gives rise to a corrupt nation. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
To the traditional Indians, terms such as "intercourse", "penis", "vagina", "clitoris", "semen", "masturbation", "breasts", etc. are exclusive possessions of the night. The traditional Indians perceive these terms as something "dirty". No matter how old they look, they really never grow up to talk and discuss about sex. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
Stop talking about "rape" and start talking about "sex", and within a few decades India will attain the true mindset to prevent sexual assaults. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
People have all day to talk about what makes them ordinary. It turns out that they want to share what makes them weird. ~ Derek Thompson
Social Psychology quotes by Derek Thompson
Recent research in social psychology has shown that happy people are not people who have more; rather, they are people who are happy with what they already have. Happy people engage in satisficing all of the time, even if they don't know it. ~ Daniel J. Levitin
Social Psychology quotes by Daniel J. Levitin
There is one thing that, more than any other, throws people absolutely off their balance - the thought that you are dependent upon them. This is sure to produce an insolent and domineering manner towards you. There are some people, indeed, who become rude if you enter into any kind of relation with them; for instance, if you have occasion to converse with them frequently upon confidential matters, they soon come to fancy that they can take liberties with you, and so they try and transgress the laws of politeness. This is why there are so few with whom you care to become more intimate, and why you should avoid familiarity with vulgar people. If a man comes to think that I am more dependent upon him than he is upon me, he at once feels as though I had stolen something from him; and his endeavor will be to have his vengeance and get it back. The only way to attain superiority in dealing with men, is to let it be seen that you are independent of them. ~ Arthur Schopenhauer
Social Psychology quotes by Arthur Schopenhauer
Knowing that Draco's hopeful face had probably been drilled into him by months of practice did not make it any less effective, Harry observed. Actually it did make it less effective, but unfortunately not ineffective. The same could be said of Draco's clever use of reciprocation pressure for an unsolicited gift, a technique which Harry had read about in his social psychology books (one experiment had shown that an unconditional gift of $5 was twice as effective as a conditional offer of $50 in getting people to fill out surveys). Draco had made an unsolicited gift of a confidence, and now invited Harry to offer a confidence in return ... and the thing was, Harry did feel pressured. Refusal, Harry was certain, would be met with a look of sad disappointment, and maybe a small amount of contempt indicating that Harry had lost points. ~ Eliezer Yudkowsky
Social Psychology quotes by Eliezer Yudkowsky
By what criteria can one decide which of a person's countless beliefs are primitive? The essential factor is that they are taken for granted: a person's primitive beliefs represent the basic truths he holds about physical reality, social reality, and himself and his own nature. Like all beliefs, conscious or unconscious, they have a personal aspect: they are rooted in the individual's experience and in the evidence of his senses. Like all beliefs, they also have a social aspect: with regard to every belief a person forms, he also forms some notion of how many other people have the experience and the knowledge necessary to share it with him, and of how close the agreement is among this group. Unlike other beliefs, however, primitive beliefs are normally not open to discussion or controversy. Either they do not come up in conversation because everyone shares them and everyone takes them for granted, or, if they do come up, they are virtually unassailable by outside forces. The criterion of social support is totally rejected; it is as if the individual said: "Nobody else could possibly know or have experienced what I have." Or, to quote a popular refrain: "Nobody knows the trouble I've seen."
 A person's primitive beliefs thus lie at the very core of his total system of beliefs, and they represent the subsystem in which he has the heaviest emotional commitment. ~ Milton Rokeach
Social Psychology quotes by Milton Rokeach
An oppressor mob is far more dangerous than an oppressor tyrant. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
To awake or not to awake - that is the question. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
Once upon a time, there was a civilization in the eastern side of the world. It was one of the most advanced civilizations on the planet that existed during that time.
This civilization was the glorious Indus valley civilization. No, I am not talking about India. I am talking about the land of greatness that got lost in time. Today, in the same geographical location of that great civilization, we have a piece of earth, which is known as "India". But do not mistake it to be the same glorious land that existed thousands of years ago, along with other magnificent civilizations, such as the Greeks, the Mayans, the Egyptians, the Babylonians etc. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
The difference between a dictator and a true leader, is in intention. Given enough resources anybody can manipulate the minds of the masses and become their chosen authority, for the masses rarely look past the veil of the candidate's charm. And this is more evident today than ever, as a psychologically unfit misogynistic bully has swayed his way into the oval office with nothing but charm and charisma. So, basically we live in a society where a bully can become the authority of a great nation, the history of which is filled with true leaders who were the forerunners of humanitarian glory and real progress - these leaders were not simply the leaders of a country, or a party, but they were and still remain in the heart of the civilized humans as the leaders of humanity. They were the torch-bearers of egalitarianism and their light spread across the globe and touched countless lives with the warmth of humaneness. They lived among the masses but they didn't let the prejudices of the masses become their own, let alone infect the masses with more prejudices, unlike today's so-called leadership in America. They made America truly a great nation, by turning it into a symbol of liberty and acceptance, and today that very greatness is at stake, as the primitive evils of prejudices and discriminations have once again begun to creep into its backbone, through the words and actions of its very so-called leader. This is not a threat to democracy, for democracy itself at our current evolut ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
The goal of argumentation is to make a case so forceful (note the metaphor) that skeptics are coerced into believing it - they are powerless to deny it while still claiming to be rational. In principle, it is the ideas themselves that are, as we say, compelling, but their champions are not always averse to helping the ideas along with tactics of verbal dominance, among them intimidation ("Clearly . . ."), threat ("It would be unscientific to . . ."), authority ("As Popper showed . . ."), insult ("This work lacks the necessary rigor for . . ."), and belittling ("Few people today seriously believe that . . ."). Perhaps this is why H. L. Mencken wrote that "college football would be more interesting if the faculty played instead of the students. ~ Steven Pinker
Social Psychology quotes by Steven Pinker
​Belief is exclusively a matter of personal domain. It has nothing to do with reality. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
Consumption is not bad, but when done at excessive proportions it turns out to be not just bad, but downright deadly for the self as well as the society, as the society itself is a collective functional expression of many selves. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
Indifference to snobbery, bigotry and savagery turns them into the norm of a society. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
What, after all, is the creation? What is man; a creature fabricated by God; or is he the product of millions of years of evolution… and is he heading towards what we might call superman? or towards his doom? ~ Rituparna Ray Chaudhuri
Social Psychology quotes by Rituparna Ray Chaudhuri
The idea is that people remember two things about an experience: the peak, and the end. In a poker game, when people think about another player they'll mostly remember any really good hands that the player got, and how he was doing at the end of the game. You took care to win only on believable hands and to leave on a losing streak - you completely blanked their peak-end retention. ~ Anonymous
Social Psychology quotes by Anonymous
From communism to capitalism - from judaism to buddhism - from non-dualism to existentialism - people across time and geography have come together, to think, feel and behave as the collective - and they continue to do so. But the point is, this collective behavior, which we can most aptly call "bee-hive behavior", has been a two-edged sword - it has brought along breathtaking accomplishments for the species, but at the same time, it has caused heart-wrenching devastations. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
The field of human relations in Freud's sense is similar to the market - it is an exchange of satisfaction of biologically given needs, in which the relationship to the other individual is always a means to an end but never an end in itself. ~ Erich Fromm
Social Psychology quotes by Erich Fromm
Politicians of today are fragmented beings creating a fragmented world. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
We praise the singer, not the composer.
We admire the painting, not the painter.
We judge by the cake's icing, not its bread.
We evaluate the workers, not their head.

We rate highly the cuisine, not the chef.
We point fingers at others, not our self.
We look at peoples' faces, not their hearts.
We always assess the ends, not the starts. ~ Rodolfo Martin Vitangcol
Social Psychology quotes by Rodolfo Martin Vitangcol
All have some artificial badge which the world, and themselves among the first, learn to consider as a genuine characteristic. ~ Nathaniel Hawthorne
Social Psychology quotes by Nathaniel Hawthorne
I was also beginning to learn about social psychology and the Milgram experiment on obedience to authority figures, which made me think about how malleable our supposedly strict moral codes become in the right conditions. Something that DIVERGENT grapples with. ~ Veronica Roth
Social Psychology quotes by Veronica Roth
If we are a body, then we are on that is afflicted with an autoimmune disease. ~ Christena Cleveland
Social Psychology quotes by Christena Cleveland
In today's society, the animals known as Homo sapiens have become conditioned to elicit the same kind of fearful response whenever the bell of Islam is rung. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
Human behavior is incredibly pliable, plastic. ~ Philip G. Zimbardo
Social Psychology quotes by Philip G. Zimbardo
People do not care about right or wrong - they don't care about truth and reasoning - they are subconsciously driven by their instinct for survival, towards confidence, charm and charisma, just like moths are drawn towards a burning candle to face their inevitable demise. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
Social psychology is especially interested in the effect which the social group has in the determination of the experience and conduct of the individual member. ~ George Herbert Mead
Social Psychology quotes by George Herbert Mead
Reading has been proven to sharpen analytical thinking, enabling us to better discern patterns – a handy tool when it comes to the often baffling behaviour of ourselves and others. But fiction in particular can make you more socially able and empathetic. Last year, the Journal of Applied Social Psychology published a paper showing how reading Harry Potter made young people in the UK and Italy more positively disposed towards stigmatised minorities such as refugees. ~ Hephzibah Anderson
Social Psychology quotes by Hephzibah Anderson
Any psychology of sign systems will be part of social psychology - that is to say, will be exclusively social; it will involve the same psychology as is applicable in the case of languages. ~ Ferdinand De Saussure
Social Psychology quotes by Ferdinand De Saussure
We can live without technology, but not without people. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
Sadness in childhood is maturity in adulthood. ~ Efrat Cybulkiewicz
Social Psychology quotes by Efrat Cybulkiewicz
Common people tend to term any kind of bizarre phenomenon as "paranormal" or "supernatural". They often exaggerate it as the work of the Gods. Behind this belief is nothing but primitive ignorance. Social progress means that people must (a necessity, not a luxury) align their beliefs and behavior to new knowledge and understanding of nature. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
If your spouse gets sick, who would you visit - your non-doctor neighbor or an actual doctor! Any sane person would visit a doctor over a non-doctor neighbor, even if that neighbor happens to be a celebrity, because it is common knowledge that fame or charisma is not equivalent to medical expertise, yet when it comes to choosing a doctor to treat the sickness of a nation, the masses most proudly elect any charismatic chimpanzee over a humble, wise and conscientious leader. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
Shallow intellect is worse than ignorance. Ignorance can be treated with knowledge, but shallow intellect, that is illusion of knowledge, is untreatable and quite dangerous to the progress and wellbeing of humanity. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
India was and to some extent, still is, a nation where its citizens care more about their religious freedom than any other earthly possession. Give them food or not, it doesn't matter to them, as long as they are allowed to practice their religion. But, take away their religion, they will fight till the last breath of their life. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
The fear of failure is not just the greatest fear of man, it is the fear of man. All other fears are avatars of the fear of failure. ~ Anup Kochhar
Social Psychology quotes by Anup Kochhar
Our brains are built to help us function as members of a tribe. ~ Bessel A. Van Der Kolk
Social Psychology quotes by Bessel A. Van Der Kolk
Note that the best rationalizations are those that have an element of truth. Whether you vote or not will almost certainly have no influence on the outcome of an election. Nor will the amount of carbon you personally put into the atmosphere make a difference in the fate of the planet. And perhaps it really should be up to governments rather than the charities that are soliciting your contributions to feed the hungry and homeless in America or save children around the world from crushing poverty and abuse. But the fact that these statements are true doesn't mean they aren't also rationalizations that you and others use to justify questionable behavior.

This uncomfortable truth is crucial to an understanding of the link between rationalization and evil - an understanding that starts with the awareness that sane people rarely, if ever, act in a truly evil manner unless they can successfully rationalize their actions... [The] process of rationalizing evil deeds committed by whole societies is a collective effort rather than a solely individual enterprise. ~ Thomas Gilovich
Social Psychology quotes by Thomas Gilovich
At our current evolutionary stage, a mass of people is no more wise than a pack of wolves. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
Time perspective is one of the most powerful influences on all of human behavior. We're trying to show how people become biased to being exclusively past-, present- or future-oriented. ~ Philip G. Zimbardo
Social Psychology quotes by Philip G. Zimbardo
(P)sychologists at the new School for Social Research found that fiction books improve our ability to register and read others' emotions and, according to an article in the Journal of Applied Social Psychology, research also shows that literary fiction enhances our ability to reflect on our problems through reading about characters who are facing similar issues and problems. ~ Meik Wiking
Social Psychology quotes by Meik Wiking
The entire idea of sin, is based on books of the dead people. It is a sociological invention founded on textual fanaticism. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
A huge portion of the human society runs on autopilot, under the authority of biases. That's why, the world is infested with so many conflicts. Once the humans get hold of their biases instead of letting their biases get hold of them, all conflicts would vanish into thin air. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
We're shameless in overlooking our own faults, but graceless in letting go another's. ~ Fakeer Ishavardas
Social Psychology quotes by Fakeer Ishavardas
Disinfect the world my friend – disinfect it with your thinking – disinfect it with your actions – disinfect it with your existence. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
It is hardly fresh intellectual ground that beauty matters, and that it matters more for women. For example, a foundational paper of social psychology is called "What Is Beautiful Is Good." It was the first in a now long line of research to establish that good-looking people are seen as more intelligent, more competent, and more trustworthy than the rest of us. More attractive people get better jobs. They are also acquitted more often in court, and, failing that, they get lighter sentences. ~ Christian Rudder
Social Psychology quotes by Christian Rudder
Whether it is rational or empirical, your approach to life must always be empathetic. Emotional intelligence is acquired when knowledge and empathy are combined and applied to situations regularly in everyday life. ~ Stewart Stafford
Social Psychology quotes by Stewart Stafford
there is no place of politics in education. The moment you let politics invade your education system, you inadvertently welcome chaos into the future of young India. Educational institutions have nothing to do with political propagandas. So, open your eyes, and throw any kind of political agenda out of your institutions. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
It was the security man's nightmare scenario. In the face of death, why wouldn't there be riots? Why wouldn't there be killing and theft and rape? If there were no consequences – or if all the consequences were the same – then anything became possible. It was his job to expect the worst of humanity, including himself. ~ James S.A. Corey
Social Psychology quotes by James S.A. Corey
The majority of India's adult and elderly population is too medieval to think as civilized, rational and progressive human beings. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
It pains me to say, that almost all of humanity has become obsessed with the pompous and fake glory of fame, that's why the dumbest words of the famous appear wise and the wisest words of the commoner seem dumb. Such is the society you live in - such is the society we all are proud to be a part of - shame on us! ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
You can tell a lot about the intellectual and moral progress of a nation's citizens, by the quality and nature of the films they watch. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
Marriage is in fact, one of the healthiest social constructs of the civilized society. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
A wealth of research confirms the importance of face-to-face contact. One experiment performed by two researchers at the University of Michigan challenged groups of six students to play a game in which everyone could earn money by cooperating. One set of groups met for ten minutes face-to-face to discuss strategy before playing. Another set of groups had thirty minutes for electronic interaction. The groups that met in person cooperated well and earned more money. The groups that had only connected electronically fell apart, as members put their personal gains ahead of the group's needs. This finding resonates well with many other experiments, which have shown that face-to-face contact leads to more trust, generosity, and cooperation than any other sort of interaction.
The very first experiment in social psychology was conducted by a University of Indiana psychologist who was also an avid bicyclist. He noted that "racing men" believe that "the value of a pace," or competitor, shaves twenty to thirty seconds off the time of a mile. To rigorously test the value of human proximity, he got forty children to compete at spinning fishing reels to pull a cable. In all cases, the kids were supposed to go as fast as they could, but most of them, especially the slower ones, were much quicker when they were paired with another child. Modern statistical evidence finds that young professionals today work longer hours if they live in a metropolitan area with plenty of competitors in th ~ Edward L. Glaeser
Social Psychology quotes by Edward L. Glaeser
The traditional Indian mind has been for centuries, and still is, first religious, and then everything else. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
We live in graves and call them home, and we further sustain the neurotic structure of those graves with elements of so-called sociological, cultural, traditional, religious, political and intellectual significance. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
A growing body of work in social psychology offers a possible explanation for this commercialization effect. These studies highlight the difference between intrinsic motivations (such as moral conviction or interest in the task at hand) and external ones (such as money or other tangible rewards). When people are engaged in an activity they consider intrinsically worthwhile, offering them money may weaken their motivation by depreciating or "crowding out" their intrinsic interest or commitment. ~ Michael J. Sandel
Social Psychology quotes by Michael J. Sandel
Situational variables can exert powerful influences over human behavior, more so that we recognize or acknowledge. ~ Philip G. Zimbardo
Social Psychology quotes by Philip G. Zimbardo
The conflicts between science and religion still remain in this day and age, because though most people understand what science means, they do not have a clue what religion means – and they do not even have a clue that they do not have a clue. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
He that is good with a hammer tends to think everything is a nail. ~ Abraham Maslow
Social Psychology quotes by Abraham Maslow
I have been primarily interested in how and why ordinary people do unusual things, things that seem alien to their natures. Why do good people sometimes act evil? Why do smart people sometimes do dumb or irrational things? ~ Philip G. Zimbardo
Social Psychology quotes by Philip G. Zimbardo
Aronson's first law:

People who do crazy things are not necessarily crazy. ~ Elliot Aronson
Social Psychology quotes by Elliot Aronson
Tread very carefully where injustice is concerned, because it takes very little for the oppressed to become the new oppressors. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
Though a person might not realize it, groups have a very powerful and dramatic effect on human behavior. Everyone acts differently when they are around people versus than when they are alone. SOCIAL FACILITATION The most basic theory regarding social psychology is that when a person is alone, he or she is more relaxed and not concerned about the appearance of their behavior. ~ Paul Kleinman
Social Psychology quotes by Paul Kleinman
Social psychology, the science of how people behave toward one another, is often a mishmash of interesting phenomena that are "explained" by giving them fancy names. Missing is the rich deductive structure of other sciences, in which a few deep principles can generate a wealth of subtle predictions - the kind of theory that scientists praise as "beautiful" or ~ Steven Pinker
Social Psychology quotes by Steven Pinker
Before I became a film major, I was very heavily into social science, I had done a lot of sociology, anthropology, and I was playing in what I call social psychology, which is sort of an offshoot of anthropology/sociology - looking at a culture as a living organism, why it does what it does. ~ George Lucas
Social Psychology quotes by George Lucas
The society terms the varied paths of achieving the divine bliss as religion. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
I look forward to the day when being called 'another Monica Lewinsky' refers to the hard work behind a master's degree in social psychology from the London School of Economics, after spending the first act of one's life deflecting the shame of a scandal that should have rested on the shoulders of a man old enough to have known better. ~ Julie Klausner
Social Psychology quotes by Julie Klausner
Social psychology has found the more you reward people for doing something, the more they tend to lose interest in whatever they had to do to get the reward. ~ Alfie Kohn
Social Psychology quotes by Alfie Kohn
Never depend on a single income. Make Investments to create a second source." - Warren Buffet ~ Archie Lee
Social Psychology quotes by Archie Lee
Heroes are those who can somehow resist the power of the situation and act out of noble motives, or behave in ways that do not demean others when they easily can. ~ Philip G. Zimbardo
Social Psychology quotes by Philip G. Zimbardo
No very sharp line can be drawn between social psychology and individual psychology. ~ George Herbert Mead
Social Psychology quotes by George Herbert Mead
It depends what you want your life to be like... if you're thirsty for water, then don't settle with the finest wine. ~ Efrat Cybulkiewicz
Social Psychology quotes by Efrat Cybulkiewicz
Life's struggle is a partnership. We fight and win together, or we truly lose the vision of our powerful spirituality and awesome oneness. ~ Maya Emmett
Social Psychology quotes by Maya Emmett
It is "humanism" that should run in the veins of the thinking humanity, not a certain gender-oriented "ism". This entire book is a treatise on gender equality, and as such, it may be hailed as a work of feminism, but it is not - it is a work of humanism. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
The Fear of failure is the greatest fear of man. Even the fear of death is fear of failing to continue life. ~ Anup Kochhar
Social Psychology quotes by Anup Kochhar
When a civil servant or politician acts out of self-interest, it's called corruption, but when a citizen does it, it's called public interest. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
I am pain-stricken to say, since the moment I was born, I have found nothing extraordinary in this ancient land of greatness to be exceptionally proud of. I am not a proud Indian. India at its present condition has given me no reason to feel proud.
However, I do feel proud of the ancient Indians, just like I feel proud of the ancient Greeks, the Mayans, the ancient Egyptians, the Babylonians and so on. Scientists are beyond borders, just like the ancient scientists of India, whom you prefer to call as sages. ~ Abhijit Naskar
Social Psychology quotes by Abhijit Naskar
In early times, the great majority of the male sex were slaves, as well as the whole of the female. And many ages elapsed, some of them ages of high cultivation, before any thinker was bold enough to question the rightfulness, and the absolute social necessity, either of the one slavery or of the other. ~ John Stuart Mill
Social Psychology quotes by John Stuart Mill
But a map is not enough as a guide for action; we also need a goal that tells us where to go. Animals have no such problems. Their instincts provide them with a map as well as with goals. But lacking instinctive determination and having a brain that permits us to think of many directions in which we can go, we need an object of total devotion, a focal point for all our strivings and the basis for all our effective - not only our proclaimed - values. We need such an object of devotion in order to integrate our energies in one direction, to transcend our isolated existence, with all its doubts and insecurities, and to answer our need for a meaning of life. ~ Erich Fromm
Social Psychology quotes by Erich Fromm
I have a deep suspicion of social institutions and tradition in general. ~ George Meyer
Social Psychology quotes by George Meyer
His nature was not a suspicious one, and he did not take pleasure, as some men did, in believing himself to have been betrayed. ~ Eleanor Catton
Social Psychology quotes by Eleanor Catton
Journalism is what maintains democracy. It's the force for progressive social change. ~ Andrew Vachss
Social Psychology quotes by Andrew Vachss
Every social ethic is doomed to failure if it is blind to personal responsibility (The Ten Commandments, 10). ~ J. Douma
Social Psychology quotes by J. Douma
Here is good news to those to whom enthusiasm does not come naturally: It can be cultivated. At first, you must consciously put your eyes, your voice, your spirit-in a word, yourself-into your appreciation of people and events and things. Do this around your home, at your work, and in your social contacts, and you will be surprised at how quickly it will become second nature. You will find yourself living in a more gracious and enthusiastic world, for your enthusiasm will be reflected back to you from the people to whom you give it. ~ David Dunn
Social Psychology quotes by David Dunn
What was the human animal in the midst of the siege? An herbivore that crawled on all fours, browsing on dirty grasses. A predator that hunted alone or in packs. A social animal that spoke of noble art and wound violin strings from the guts of dead sheep and pigs. A creature with canine teeth for tearing, but with a tongue for speaking. A mouth that could devour or sing. ~ M.T. Anderson
Social Psychology quotes by M.T. Anderson
Brands that will survive and thrive from now on are those with C-level executives that understand the incredible opportunity new media offers them and commit to excellence in managing their social media presence. ~ Brian E. Boyd Sr.
Social Psychology quotes by Brian E. Boyd Sr.
Think of a dinner party as a club of revolutionaries, a technocratic elite whose social interactions that night are a dry run for some future takeover of the state. ~ Phillip Lopate
Social Psychology quotes by Phillip Lopate
I think there's really strong social stratification in South Asia. ~ Mohsin Hamid
