Karl Marx1 quote
Society does not consist of individuals; it expresses the sum of connections and relationships in which individuals find themselves. — Karl Marx · 1883Margaret Thatcher1 quote
They are casting their problems on society and who is society? There is no such thing! There are individual men and women and there are families and no government can do anything except through people and people look to themselves first. — Margaret Thatcher · 1987Mr. Pink1 quote
I don’t tip because society says I have to. — Mr. Pink · 1992William Graham Sumner1 quote
The men, women, and children who compose a society at any time are the unconscious depositaries and transmitters of the mores. They inherited them without knowing it; they are molding them unconsciously; they will transmit them involuntarily. The people cannot make the mores. They are made by them. — William Graham Sumner · 1906
