Survival is very powerful. All your faculties want to cling to life. We're not tested usually, luckily, but when we are, we become superheroes.

Quotes by Yossi Ghinsberg

Surviving is not something you need to learn. You don't need to learn survival skills; you have them already. That's why we're here, all of us, because it's a game of survival anyway.

Quotes by Yossi Ghinsberg

Yidaki didgeridoo has been used in every part of Australian regional culture, all around the country. It's become a message stick for the survival of those people, for aboriginal people and aboriginal culture.

Quotes by Xavier Rudd

We are driven by five genetic needs: survival, love and belonging, power, freedom, and fun.

Quotes by William Glasser

Liberals, it has been said, are generous with other peoples' money, except when it comes to questions of national survival when they prefer to be generous with other people's freedom and security.

Quotes by William F. Buckley, Jr.

I think the default position of humans is to be terrible, and we have to train it out of our children. That's just part of survival, right? Predator animals don't survive by being nice; humans are basically predator animals.

Quotes by Wil Wheaton

I would love to do Tammi Terrell's story. I love stories of the underdog coming out on top and stories of survival.

Quotes by Wendy Raquel Robinson

It was a matter of survival for the local people, but it was the most violent scene I have ever witnessed. The people in my group, feeling helpless, were all spellbound and aghast at the same time. I became a vegetarian shortly after that.

Quotes by Wendie Malick

To cherish what remains of the Earth and to foster its renewal is our only legitimate hope of survival.

Quotes by Wendell Berry

The overarching problem is one of the survival of humanity in the face of the growing nuclear menace. If those bombs go off, nothing else would matter.

Quotes by Walter F. Mondale

From the very first, it has been the educated and intelligent of the Negro people that have led and elevated the mass, and the sole obstacles that nullified and retarded their efforts were slavery and race prejudice; for what is slavery but the legalized survival of the unfit and the nullification of the work of natural internal leadership?

Quotes by W. E. B. Du Bois

Learning is not compulsory... neither is survival.

Quotes by Vijay Deverakonda

My favorite part about Mare Barrow is her almost selfish survival instinct, as well as her increasingly gray morality. Her character arc in 'Glass Sword' is a lot deeper and more emotional than before, so I'm glad I got to write this sequel and that people want to read it.

Quotes by Victoria Aveyard

I haven't seen the show, but when it was finished I felt good about what we had done. I don't know how it will stack up with Survival, but that'll be up to the critics.

Hamas's strategy is resistance and survival. As long as they survive, this is a victory.

Quotes by Tzipi Livni

Baseball is a red-blooded sport for red-blooded men. It's no pink tea, and mollycoddles had better stay out. It's a struggle for supremacy, a survival of the fittest.

Quotes by Ty Cobb

The confidence in my ability to be a performer, a steeliness about survival... I learnt all those things from my dad.

Quotes by Tony Robinson

I may find Saddam Hussein's regime abhorrent - any normal person would - but the survival of it is in his hands.

Quotes by Tony Blair

I'm a believer in belief. Faith is something that works - it causes people to do things, it has results. It's an intangible, indefinable, very real thing. And it moves people, sometimes to atrocity. And sometimes to survival.

Quotes by Tommy Lee Jones

It is precisely because neither individuals nor small groups can be fully self-sufficient that cooperation is necessary to human survival and flourishing.

Quotes by Tom G. Palmer

Narcissism and self-deception are survival mechanisms without which many of us might just jump off a bridge.

Quotes by Tina Brown

What has happened to America's survival instincts?

Quotes by Tina Brown

The key to the survival of liberty in the modern world is the embrace of multiple identities.

Quotes by Timothy Garton Ash

Quotes by Timothy Noah

Quotes by Theodore C. Sorensen

Quotes by Tara Stiles

In times of disaster, basic connectivity is a form of aid that connects people to the resources critical for survival and enables humanitarian organizations to quickly deliver life-saving information.

Quotes by Tae Yoo

In the wild, those traits that are adaptive for survival and reproductive advantage are brought out through natural selection. So cats that were fierce, furtive hunters, alert to the snapping of every twig, with coats that gave them good camouflage, would have been favored by evolution.

Quotes by Sue Hubbell

What I learned with Cecil Taylor was strategy and survival and how to resist temptations and resist getting discouraged.

Quotes by Steve Lacy

Look in the mirror, and don't be tempted to equate transient domination with either intrinsic superiority or prospects for extended survival.

Quotes by Stephen Jay Gould

It is not clear that intelligence has any long-term survival value.

Quotes by Stephen Hawking

Although September 11 was horrible, it didn't threaten the survival of the human race, like nuclear weapons do.

Quotes by Stephen Hawking

Whether or not we believe in survival of consciousness after death, reincarnation, and karma, it has very serious implications for our behavior.

Quotes by Stanislav Grof

The study of consciousness that can extend beyond the body is extremely important for the issue of survival, since it is this part of human personality that would be likely to survive death.

Quotes by Stanislav Grof

At a time when unbridled greed, malignant aggression, and existence of weapons of mass destruction threatens the survival of humanity, we should seriously consider any avenue that offers some hope.

Quotes by Stanislav Grof

I fought for my survival since infancy.

Quotes by Soon-Yi Previn

My shows are about the complete woman who swallows it all. It's a question of survival.

Quotes by Sonia Rykiel

Nature abhors a hero. For one thing, he violates the law of conservation of energy. For another, how can it be the survival of the fittest when the fittest keeps putting himself in situations where he is most likely to be creamed?

Quotes by Solomon Short

I land in New York, and next day, we go to the doctor. He looks at everything, and we had sent all our tests, and he says, 'You know, it is fourth stage, and you have 30% chance of survival.'

Quotes by Sonali Bendre

Survival is a privilege which entails obligations. I am forever asking myself what I can do for those who have not survived.

Quotes by Simon Wiesenthal

The good thing that may yet happen during dying is not the possibility of survival when we're beyond that point. The good thing that may yet happen is that our lives will have great meaning for those we leave behind.

Quotes by Sherwin B. Nuland

Sustainability is the key to our survival on this planet and will also determine success on all levels.

Quotes by Shari Arison

Exploration is an oft-lauded human activity, and one that resonates in the same way that music and good stories do. It's hard-wired into our species (and into many others), no doubt because it has survival value. Exploration occasionally rewards those who accept its risks, usually with new resources.

Quotes by Seth Shostak

Of the primary emotions, fear is the one that bears most directly on survival. Children show fear. Adults try not to, maybe because it's shameful, or, in some circumstances, dangerous. The fear response is automatic, though, and your body runs through its reflexes whether you want it to or not.

Quotes by Sebastian Junger

Jews, black people - any people who are hated or who have suffered, either as individuals or as a people - use humour. It is a survival skill.

Quotes by Sarah Silverman

When I make a film about a physically challenged person, I come away with so much. I learn to value what I have. My survival instinct sharpened after 'Black' and 'Guzaarish.'

Quotes by Sanjay Leela Bhansali

When you're in the battlefield, survival is all there is. Death is the only great emotion.

Quotes by Samuel Fuller

I enjoy baseball more than anything and would like to be involved with it forever, but the reality is your survival is determined by how well you compete, not by your fondness for the game.

Quotes by Sadaharu Oh

The unrestricted competition so commonly advocated does not leave us the survival of the fittest. The unscrupulous succeed best in accumulating wealth.

Quotes by Rutherford B. Hayes

We have the capability - physically, technically - to protect the Earth from asteroid impacts. We are now able to very slightly and subtly reshape the solar system in order to enhance human survival.

Quotes by Rusty Schweickart

They went into stores to get food to stay alive. Looting isn't the right word. I call it survival.

Quotes by Russel Honore

Life comes from physical survival; but the good life comes from what we care about.

Quotes by Rollo May

Imagination is an instrument of survival.

Quotes by Rogier van der Heide

Quotes by Rod Lurie

When a trait is universal, evolutionary biologists look for a genetic explanation and wonder how that gene or genes might enhance survival or reproductive success.

Quotes by Robin Marantz Henig

Quotes by Robert Nozick

Quotes by Robby Gordon

The 600 is survival. It's NASCAR's longest race.

Quotes by Robby Gordon

Our greatest theoretical physicist, Stephen Hawking, recently declared that humans have no more than a hundred years to get off this planet to ensure the survival of our species. And when someone such as he does so, it is with an understanding not just of the science, but of both our tenuous place and our possibility in the universe.

Quotes by Rick Tumlinson

Robotics, manufacturing, medicine, farming, energy - all will be pushed to and beyond their limits and, by so doing, will advance at speeds far faster than without the impetus and challenge of opening a frontier - thus also raising the odds of survival in our favor.

Quotes by Rick Tumlinson

The reactionary percentage of the electorate in these United States has been relatively constant since McCarthy's day; I'd estimate it as hovering around 30 percent. A minority, but one never all that enamored of the niceties of democracy - they see themselves as fighting for the survival of civilization, after all.

Quotes by Rick Perlstein

Well I think on a simple ecological level that the diversity of this planet is important for our survival, that all of our different cultures, people are important to the health of the whole the same way that a species of animal should be saved and at a simple ecology level.

Quotes by Richard Gere

God exists, if only in the form of a meme with high survival value, or infective power, in the environment provided by human culture.

Quotes by Richard Dawkins

Quotes by Rebecca Solnit

Quotes by Rebecca Solnit

Quotes by Rebecca Solnit

Quotes by Raoul Vaneigem

Overall, my life has been one of survival, and the decisions that I have made along the way, including my identification, have been to survive.

Quotes by Rachel Dolezal

We started writing songs like 'Shook Ones' and 'Survival of the Fittest' explaining our neighborhood, but more our personal lives.

Quotes by Prodigy

I'm a New Zealand actor, and I really want to be doing our stuff here, and our stuff includes plays from overseas. In terms of survival, maybe I should have taken a shot elsewhere at some point, but it gets back to the same theme - we should have our own people telling our own stories.

Quotes by Peter Hambleton

Gossip, in its earlier forms, contained information that was critical to survival because, in clans of 150, what happened to anyone had a direct impact on everyone.

Quotes by Peter Diamandis

Quotes by Peter Benchley

This generation has given up on growth. They're just hoping for survival.

Quotes by Penelope Spheeris

Memo to future presidents: Never stake your entire survival on the painful passing of a bad bill. Never take the country down the road to 'Demon Pass.'

Quotes by Peggy Noonan

People react differently to hearing 'Procedure X has a 70 percent chance of survival' and 'Procedure Y has a 30 percent chance of death.' Phrased that way, people flock to Procedure X, even though the numbers are the same.

Quotes by Paul Kalanithi

I grew up in the prolonged survival of the great age of the horse, with harness and saddle and sleigh bells and horse pictures, not as antiques but the facts of our lives.

Quotes by Paul Engle

Cancer cells come pre-programmed to execute a well-defined cascade of changes, seemingly designed to facilitate both their enhanced survival and their dissemination through the bloodstream. There is even an air of conspiracy in the way that tumours use chemical signals to create cancer-friendly niches in remote organs.

Quotes by Paul Davies

The advent of AIDS circa 1980 has really forced medicine and biology to take enormous steps just for sheer survival. The same way war propels hard technology, AIDS has created wartime conditions in the field of biology that will have all sorts of spin-offs.

Quotes by Paul Di Filippo

Survival was my only hope, success my only revenge.

Quotes by Patricia Cornwell

Survival is not just a physical thing. It's a constant mental affair. So, I kind of really draw a lot of power from that word.

Quotes by Parvathy

I'm interested in how we react when we're heavily pressed. When we're vulnerable and our survival is in question, how do we behave?

Quotes by Paolo Bacigalupi

The left's mission isn't simply to grant every citizen the basic means of survival, but comfort and prosperity, too, through collective means. Yet the existence of billionaires is irreconcilable with this emancipatory project.

Quotes by Owen Jones

The passenger pigeon, the golden toad, the Caspian tiger: they are all gone, and other species hang by a thread. Our actions are not merely driving other species to extinction: we threaten our own survival, too, by destabilising ecosystems and destroying biodiversity.

Quotes by Owen Jones

The old series of sittings with Mrs. Piper convinced me of survival for reasons which I should find it hard to formulate in any strict fashion, but that was their distinct effect.

Quotes by Oliver Joseph Lodge

Basing my conclusions on experience I am absolutely convinced not only of survival but of demonstrated survival, demonstrated by occasional interaction with matter in such a way as to produce physical results.

Quotes by Oliver Joseph Lodge

When we were engaged in the problems of survival we had no time to have anything to do with culture.

Quotes by Norman Borlaug

The more we get out of the world the less we leave, and in the long run we shall have to pay our debts at a time that may be very inconvenient for our own survival.
