Humans
have an amazing capacity to believe in contradictory things. For
example, to believe in an omnipotent and benevolent God but somehow
excuse Him from all the suffering in the world. Or our ability to
believe from the standpoint of law that humans are equal and have free
will and from biology that humans are just organic machines.

feel much for others and little for ourselves; to restrain our
selfishness and exercise our benevolent affections, constitute the
perfection of human nature.

I
hate organized religion. I think you have to love thy neighbor as
thyself. I think you have to pick your own God and be true to him. I
always say ‘him’ rather than ‘her.’ Maybe it’s because of my generation,
but I don’t like the idea of a female God. I see God as a benevolent
male.
Julia Child

Therefore, concentrate on the depth of your consciousness and on what
you consider to be positive and good.
Hans Bender
The
erroneous economic belief in scarcity leads directly to the mistaken
theological belief that God does not want us to be rich. After all, in a
world of scarce physical resources, a person could achieve personal
wealth only by taking wealth from another - something that a truly
benevolent, loving God would never allow.
Paul Zane Pilzer
There
are two main methodologies of open source development. There’s the

is doing, with Mark Shuttleworth.

both can be the most beautiful and benevolent creatures on the planet,

truth is, it’s a totalitarian dictatorship when you’re making films.

with.
When a benevolent mind contemplates the republic of Lycurgus, its admiration is mixed with a degree of horror.
Thomas Day
I
think there are presences out there that we can’t see or directly
communicate with that have benevolent influence on us. Whether they’re
angels or something else, I’m not sure.
Misha Collins
Being
made to feel like an irrelevant child was probably an asset. Benign
negligence is not a bad parental attitude or at least a cross between a
benevolent dictator and benign negligence - you should just let kids
crack on with it.
Clare Balding
To
the truly benevolent mind, indeed, nothing is more satisfactory than to
hear of a miser denying himself the necessaries of life a little too
far and ridding us of his presence altogether.
James Payn
If
you don’t believe there’s some organising principle, or somebody up in
the sky pulling the strings, then it can be very stressful. And nature
itself is very arbitrary - it’s not malevolent or benevolent; it doesn’t
even know we’re here.
Michael Shannon
I
took two or three months and I came up with a reason that I thought was
enough and I went with it: if there is a God he’s definitely not
benevolent. We should mean less to him than ants. And if there is a God

the most part, my characters don’t talk to me. I like to lord over them

long, play-like conversations between me and them, but they stay out of
the book writing itself.
Sarah MacLean

Barry Humphries
We
always like to keep our children in a kind of bubble and censor the bad
news about the world. We like to tell them the world is full of
benevolent, nice people.
Kazuo Ishiguro
I’m
not questioning the monotheistic god. I think there’s absolutely no
evidence for the existence of such a god. When I say that, I mean I’m -
part of that is that the idea that God could be all-powerful and also
benevolent is on its face contradictory.
Barbara Ehrenreich

they do; sometimes they make some mistakes, but at heart I think they’re
decent.
Patrick Marber
I’m a benevolent dictator.
Harvey Weinstein

like joking around and being a little mischievous. Once an audience or

Reggie Watts
Why
can’t Google, which likes to see itself as a ‘Don’t Be Evil’ benevolent
force in society, just write us a big check for using our stories, so
we can keep checks and balances alive and continue to provide the search
engine with our stories?

people get to the other side of these difficult conversations being more
enthusiastic.

wife tells me I am a male chauvinist pig and I have to sort of admit

myself as a benevolent dictator.

maintains a balanced view.
Mike Medavoy
