More quotes by Herbert Spencer
Architecture, sculpture, painting, music, and poetry, may truly be called the efflorescence of civilised life.
Herbert Spencer
In societies of low civilization, there is no money.
Herbert Spencer
The freest form of government is only the least objectionable form. The rule of the many by the few we call tyranny: the rule of the few by the many is tyranny also only of a less intense kind.
Herbert Spencer
The society exists for the benefit of its members not its members for the benefit of the society.
Herbert Spencer
In science the important thing is to modify and change one's ideas as science advances.
Herbert Spencer
When a man's knowledge is not in order, the more of it he has the greater will be his confusion.
Herbert Spencer
Of all the knowledge, that most worth having is knowledge about health! The first requisite of a good life is to be a healthy person.
Herbert Spencer
Music ministers to human welfare more than any other art.
Herbert Spencer
An argument fatal to the communist theory, is suggested by the fact, that a desire for property is one of the elements of our nature.
Herbert Spencer
Without painting, sculpture, music, poetry, and the emotions produced by natural beauty of every kind, life would lose half its charm.
Herbert Spencer
We must infer that a plant or animal of any species, is made up of special units, in all of which there dwells the intrinsic aptitude to aggregate into the form of that species: just as in the atoms of a salt, there dwells the intrinsic aptitude to crystallize in a particular way.
Herbert Spencer
A nation's institutions and beliefs are determined by it's character.
Herbert Spencer
Every man is free to do that which he wills, provided he infringes not the equal freedom of any other man.
Herbert Spencer
It is a mistake to assume that government must necessarily last forever. The institution marks a certain stage of civilization-is natural to a particular phase of human development. It is not essential, but incidental. As amongst the Bushmen we find a state antecedent to government, so may there be one in which it shall have become extinct.
Herbert Spencer
Every unpunished delinquency has a family of delinquencies.
Herbert Spencer
When you take comprehensive, then we're dealing with certain issues like full citizenship ... And whatever else we disagree on, I think we would agree on that that's a more toxic and contentious issue, granting full amnesty.
Herbert Spencer
Our lives are universally shortened by our ignorance.
Herbert Spencer
The question of questions for the politicians should ever be-What type of social structure am I tending to produce? But this is a question he never entertains.
Herbert Spencer
All socialism involves slavery.
Herbert Spencer
Much dearer be the things which come through hard distress.
Herbert Spencer
