“Is it all right for the government to allow the murder of an innocent human being? From the moment of conception, a new life comes into being with a complete genetic blueprint. The sex is determined. The blood type is determined. The moment that I learned the unborn was not part of the woman's body but its own individual human being, I have no choice but to defend the most vulnerable among us.” HumansMomentsBodyGovernmentChoicesIndividualSexHuman BeingsBloodTypeMurderDeterminedInnocentVulnerableConceptionNew LifeUnbornBlueprintsWomen's BodiesBlood Type Author:Kathy Ireland
“Psychoanalysis , which interprets the human being as a socialized being, and the psychic apparatus as essentially developed and determined through the relationship of the individual to society, must consider it a duty to participate in the investigation of sociological problems to the extent the human being or his/her psyche plays any part at all.” HumansPlayProblemIndividualHuman BeingsDutyDeterminedInvestigationPsychicsPsychoanalysisSociological Author:Erich Fromm

“In the end, people don't view their life as merely the average of all its moments-which, after all, is mostly nothing much plus some sleep. For human beings, life is meaningful because it is a story. A story has a sense of a whole, and its arc is determined by the significant moments, the ones where something happens. Measurements of people's minute-by-minute levels of pleasure and pain miss this fundamental aspect of human existence. A seemingly happy life maybe empty. A seemingly difficult life may be devoted to a great cause. We have purposes larger than ourselves.” PeopleHumansMayEndsWholeMomentsStoriesHappensPainLife IsPurposeCausesDifficultHuman BeingsSleepPleasureLevelsViewsExistenceMinutesMissingAspectEmptyFundamentalsAverageDeterminedMeaningfulSignificantThings HappenPlusHappy LifeDevotedMeasurementHuman ExistenceArcsPain And PleasureDifficult LifeSignificant Moments Book:Being Mortal: Illness, Medicine and What Matters in the End Source: Being Mortal: Illness, Medicine and What Matters in the End
“They are men and women who tend to believe that the human being is perfectible and social progress predictable, and that the instrument for effecting the two is reason; that truths are transitory and empirically determined; that equality is desirable and attainable through the action of state power; that social and individual differences, if they are not rational, are objectionable, and should be scientifically eliminated; that all people and societies strive to organize themselves upon a rationalist and scientific paradigm.” PeopleIfsMenShouldBelieveHumansTwoStatesReasonActionIndividualSocialDifferencesHuman BeingsProgressMen And WomenInstrumentsStriveDeterminedRationalOrganizeDesirableParadigmPredictableTransitorySocial ProgressIndividual Differences Author:William F.
