A dialogue among civilizations can be seen as a dialogue between the individual and the universal.
Abdelaziz Bouteflika
After a few months in my parents' basement, I took an apartment near the state university, where I discovered both crystal methamphetamine and conceptual art. Either one of these things are dangerous, but in combination they have the potential to destroy entire civilizations.
David Sedaris
AIDS is a global problem and there should be a global solution found by the entire international community. It is really scary to see and imagine our world fall into pieces because we refuse to share and put in the common vestiges of our civilizations.
Sarah Polley
All great civilizations, in their early stages, are based on success in war.
Kenneth Clark
Art is the signature of civilizations.
Beverly Sills
But it is a law of life and development in history where two national civilizations meet they fight for ascendancy.
Bernhard von Bulow
Civilizations can only be understood by those who are civilized.
Alfred North Whitehead
Civilizations die from suicide, not by murder.
Arnold J. Toynbee
I am studying ancient civilizations, trying to find what happened to them, finding out why they went into a decline, why they died.
L. Ron Hubbard
I believe that the capital of the Republic of Albania is a suitable venue for discussing the dialogue among religions and civilizations, notably in the countries of South East Europe, because we are well familiar with this country's track record of religious tolerance.
Georgi Purvanov

William Feather
Our most intimate contact with civilizations long since dust has been through the art which has survived them.
Carlisle Floyd
Technology is a gift of God. After the gift of life it is perhaps the greatest of God's gifts. It is the mother of civilizations, of arts and of sciences.

There is but little room for doubt that Egypt led the way in the creation of the earliest known group of civilizations which arose on both sides of the land bridge between Africa and Eurasia in the fourth millennium B.C.
