“Even if drugs are fully as destructive as they are usually claimed to be, it is morally wrong and demonstrably more destructive for government to deprive people of their unalienable, individual, civil, Constitutional, and human right to make an utter mess of their own lives. Since human beings are inclined to learn more from the mistakes they make, rather than from their triumphs, the right to fail, for individuals and groups alike, may be even more important than the right to succeed, and it must be fiercely protected at almost any cost.” PeopleIfsHumansMayImportantGovernmentIndividualHuman BeingsMistakeFailingGroupsCostDrugSucceedMessTriumphDestructiveProtected Author:L.

“The idea is that inside every human being, however unprepossessing, there is a glorious, talented, and overwhelmingly attractive personality. Nonsense. Inside each of us is a mess of unruly, primitive impulses, and these can sometimes, under the strenuous self-discipline and dedication of art, result in notable creativity.” HumansArtIdeasSelfSometimesHuman BeingsResultsCreativityPersonalityDisciplineMessImpulseAttractiveGloriousNonsenseDedicationPrimitiveSelf DisciplineNotableUnruly Author:Margaret Halsey

“As an artist, you've got to see the mess. That's what we do. We get a human being, and it's like putting together a puzzle. And the puzzle has got to be a mixture, a multifaceted mixture of human emotions, and not all of it is going to be pretty.” HumansTogetherArtistHuman BeingsEmotionMessPuzzlesMixturesHuman Emotions Author:Viola Davis

“It's hard not to be kind of pessimistic about human beings generally, because we do tend to mess things up. If you just look at the history of extinctions, we've killed off an awful lot of animals - and I don't think we're doing a very good job of looking after the planet.” IfsThinkingHumansLooksKindHardJobsHuman BeingsAnimalPlanetsVery GoodAwfulMessBe KindGood JobExtinctionPessimistic Author:Bill Bryson
