“The evil is not that you cannot change human nature. The evil is that human nature cannot change you.”
Barrows Dunham
“Human action can be modified to some extent, but human nature cannot be changed.”
Abraham Lincoln
“The only thing that one really knows about human nature is that it changes. Change is the one quality we can predicate of it. The systems that fail are those that rely on the permanency of human nature, and not on its growth and development. The error of Louis XIV was that he thought human nature would always be the same. The result of his error was the French Revolution. It was an admirable result.”
Oscar Wilde
“There is nothing that can be changed more completely than human nature when the job is taken in hand early enough.”
George Bernard Shaw
“Human nature will not change. In any future great national trial, compared with the men of this, we shall have as weak and as strong, as silly and as wise, as bad and as good.”
“Slavery is also as ancient as war, and was as human nature.”
Voltaire
“Love is the basic need of human nature, for without it, life is disrupted emotionally, mentally, spiritually and physically”
