In Iraq we are fighting against men with blind hatred and armed with lethal weapons who are capable of any atrocity. They wear no uniform they respect no laws of warfare or morality. They take innocent lives to create chaos for the cameras.
George W. Bush

The Christians committed all sorts of atrocities on the Jews by giving them the label Killers of Christ. Hitler is not an exception but a culmination of the 2000-year long oppression of the Jews by the Christians
M. S. Golwalkar

There is direct correlation between a society lacking in artistic vision to lack of social conscience, i.e., crime, poverty, and senseless, violent atrocities, materialism.
Vanna Bonta

The nine-to-five is one of the greatest atrocities sprung upon mankind. You give your life to a function that doesn't interest you. This situation so repelled me that I was driven to drink, starvation, and mad females, simply as an alternative.
Charles Bukowski

Religious tolerance is something we should all practice however, there have been more persecution and atrocities committed in the name of religion and religious freedom than anything else.
Walter Koenig

My own concern is primarily the terror and violence carried out by my own state... It is very easy to denounce the atrocities of someone else. That has about as much ethical value as denouncing atrocities that took place in the 18th century.
Noam Chomsky

There is no western concern for issues of aggression, atrocities, human rights abuses and so on if there's a profit to be made from them
Noam Chomsky

If there is a country that has committed unspeakable atrocities in the world, it is the United States of America. They don't care for human beings.... What I am condemning is that one power, with a president [George W. Bush] who has no foresight, who cannot think properly, is now wanting to plunge the world into a holocaust.
Nelson Mandela

Is slavery - owner, victim, profit, and domination - exclusive to the human race? Have blacks, Jews, women and children been the only victims of this atrocity? Have not cows been enslaved? What about pigs, chickens, turkeys, fish, sheep? If they’re not enslaved, then what are they? Free?

Silence in the face of atrocity is not neutrality silence in the face of atrocity is acquiescence.
Samantha Power

A truly nonviolent man would never live to tell the tale of atrocities. He would have laid down his life on the spot in non-violent resistance.
Mahatma Gandhi

In 1952, I had gone to England on a literary pilgrimage, but what I also saw, even at that distance from the blitz, were bombed-out ruins and an enervated society, while the continent was still, psychologically, in the grip of its recent atrocities.
Cynthia Ozick

It's one thing to say don't commit atrocities on the battlefield. It's another thing to say don't get caught doing atrocities.
Oliver North

Every generation witnesses atrocities. People in power try to fulfill prophecy.
Nas

Those who believe absurdities will commit atrocities.
Voltaire
Image
Atrocities are human nature - they don't have political beliefs, color, creed or anything like that. They just happen, it's human.
Clancy Brown
Image
The biggest misconception about me and my work is that I only make political films denouncing human-rights atrocities, even though all of my films are about people fighting for their rights and their quest for justice. My films aren't depressing, are very human, and always offer a way forward.

If we wish to stop the atrocities, we need merely to step away from the isolation. There is a whole world waiting for us, ready to welcome us home.
Derrick Jensen

scientific whaling, and other lies will be exposed and become atrocities of the past.
Steve Irwin

Do books about the Holocaust make us think, Oh well, there was nothing we could've done to prevent that or prevent it from happening again? Of course not. It makes us angry and determined to stop such atrocities.
James Dashner

Some kind of settlement in Kashmir is crucial for both countries [Pakistan and India]. It's also tearing India apart with horrible atrocities in the region which is controlled by Indian armed forces.
Noam Chomsky
Image
mankind is resilient: the atrocities that horrified us a week ago become acceptable tomorrow.
Joseph Heller
Image
If every human rights atrocity is described as a Holocaust,[Adolf] Hitler's attempted obliteration of the Jewish people is diminished or de-recognised in our history.
Jeremy Corbyn

It's easy to forget history or give it a cliff notes. The cliff notes of history. But mainly, so much of what happens in 'Eyes on the Prize' happened in Jackson, Mississippi. Jackson, Mississippi isn't really known for any other touchstone to the movement, other than Medgar Evers being killed. There were sit-ins and riots and atrocities.
