Humanity is not a word my friend. It is a symbol — a symbol of hope — a symbol of wisdom — yet this very symbol has become disgraced by our faults and deluded justification of mistakes.

About This Quote

In a world full of hatred, anger and violence, it is easy to forget that people are still people. In an age where we have become so consumed with our own needs and desires that we have forgotten the needs and desires of others, we must remember that humanity is a word my friend. A word that has been used to describe the state of being human. A word that can be used to describe the best qualities of an individual.

Unfortunately, this is a word that has been perverted in our society today. We have allowed ourselves to become separated from one another and even from our own humanity. The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling but in rising every time we fall. We must be the change we want to see in this world and we must bring back the meaning of humanity to its rightful place in our society.
