Albert Camus:
All men have a sweetness in their life. That is what helps them go on. It is towards that they turn when they feel too worn out.
Alexander Pope:
In lazy Apathy let Stoics boast,
Their Virtue fix'd, 'tis fixed as in a frost.
Elie Wiesel:
It may well be that our means are fairly limited and our possibilities restricted when it comes to applying pressure on our government. But is this a reason to do nothing? Despair is nor an answer. Neither is resignation. Resignation only leads to indifference, which is not merely a sin but a punishment
Elizabeth Cady Stanton:
That only a few, under any circumstances, protest against the injustice of long-established laws and customs, does not disprove the fact of the oppressions, while the satisfaction of the many, if real only proves their apathy and deeper degradation.
Franklin D. Roosevelt:
It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something.
George Bernard Shaw:
Disobedience, the rarest and most courageous of the virtues, is seldom distinguished from neglect, the laziest and commonest of the vices.
Helen Keller:
Science may have found a cure for most evils; but it has found no remedy for the worst of them all -- the apathy of human beings.
Henri Frederic Amiel:
Truth is not only violated by falsehood; it may be equally outraged by silence.
Jimmy Buffett :
Is it ignorance or apathy? Hey, I don't know and I don't care.
Mohandas K. Gandhi:
The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world's problems.
Plato:
The price of apathy towards public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.
Robert M. Hutchins:
The death of democracy is not likely to be an assassination from ambush. It will be a slow extinction from apathy, indifference, and undernourishment.
Thomas Carlyle:
Instead of saying that man is the creature of circumstance, it would be nearer the mark to say that man is the architect of circumstance.
William Lloyd Garrison:
The apathy of the people is enough to make every statue leap from its pedestal and hasten the resurrection of the dead.
