Hell has been described as a pocket edition of Chicago.
Ashley Montagu
The whole of life is a journey toward youthful old age, toward self-contemplation, love, gaiety, and, in a fundamental sense, the most gratifying time of our lives. . . . Old age should be a harvest time when the riches of life are reaped and enjoyed, while it continues to be a special period for self-development and expansion.
Ashley Montagu

Ashley Montagu
The Eskimos live among ice all their lives but have no single word for ice.
Ashley Montagu
It is the mark of the cultured man that he is aware of the fact that equality is an ethical and not a biological principle
Ashley Montagu
The natural superiority of women is a biological fact, and a socially acknowledged reality.
Ashley Montagu
In Victorian times the purpose of life was to develop a personality once and for all and then stand on it.
Ashley Montagu
Stand still, close your eyes and listen in the silence you can hear the cries of pain and low moans of anguish of animals waiting to die... do everything you can even if today it is just one small thing. There are no excuses for inaction, despair, egotism, or petulance that matter to the animals.
Ashley Montagu
It's by what you do that you communicate to others that you are deeply involved in their well being.
Ashley Montagu
The way I change my life is to act as if I am the person I really want to be.
Ashley Montagu
