I feel like to many violence is the way we tame our wounds, but we need to be civil, they say. Calmer. Look our offenders in the eye and smile politely. Does it mean to roll over and forgive blindly, to let you win when they say we are restless? Well, it is true that I do rest less because what peace of mind is there with the ruckus and the noise and the apathy? We are never much good to ourselves at all.
I’m doing the best I can. You’re upset and I come running; you need a hand I come running. But I can see through you and I know that you don’t like me. Kill ’em with kindness…and then they might finally understand me.
Civilization is a myth. It was created by those who wished to impose hierarchy. Wait, that’s a total lie. It was actually implanted through something called agriculture, which depended on the weather, the climate. Which explains poverty and riches and how they’re spread out over the word. What am I talking about? I dunno, ask Jared Diamond.
I did this one wlaready! It means to eat at the dinner table, open doors for old ladies, and keeping the noise down when in a public place. This is what civilized means to me.
It is one thing to inhabit a country. It is something else entirely to civilize it. It takes gratitude and culture to civilize. Merely bodies to inhabit. Though those videos are capable of learning. They are able to teach and pass on that with they have gained to future generations. This would be the beginning of civilization.
We never asked to be civilized in the first place. We simply stood by and stared as strange vessels brought equally strange men to our shores. When we defended ourselves, they called us savages. When we rebelled, they just laughed patronizingly.
city and urban spaces, created by society, opposite of barbaric, England in the 1800s, tea parties, pinky out, behave well in front of guests, superior to lower classes

In a futile attempt to forget his past, James stuffed all his old photographs into the trash can in the alley. He lit a match and tossed it in. The pictures burned, and so did everything else beneath it. Most of it wasn’t James’ junk; whoever had lived in the dumpy little house before him had left a lot of garbage. Down the alley, smoke seeped out from beneath the lids of other trash cans too. This new town was a criminal hotspot.
I once thought that people in rustic areas are harder to civilize than those enjoying their lives in the urban and suburban. apparently, i was wrong. it’s harder to civilize fools who believe they are civilized and have had enough of it already. who are you fooling?
All they wanted to do was to civilize my people. What they didn’t understand though was that we didn’t want to be civilized by them. We wanted to retain our beliefs and overall sense of chaos. We liked it that way, and it’s what worked for us. They should just leave me and my people alone.
Back in the days of the early U.S., there was heavy white interaction with indians. It was thought that whites had the natural job to civilize the indians. However, with their peaceful culture that respected nature, i’m not sure they were the ones that needed to be civilized.
The people should be well civilized. Civilized people are given respect. Good people are always civilized people. Civilized people perform their duties good and use good manners.
I remember once, when my next-door neighboor Richie came over, he came at me with a baseball bat, so I fast-pitched the ball into his chest. He went home crying. We never hung out again except once, when he shot a squirrel with the bb gun his parents got him for Christmas.
in the nature of man is nothing that could be called holy. i wish i could civilize you the way he civilized me, out on the porch stairs, with a whip and a chain and a big fat Nothing for a name. there were centuries that passed before i realized the pain. he had claimed it was for the good and the better.
What were my thoughts upon entering this world, how did my current state of mind come to be? Civil, is that even possible after the trauma of living? How does one truly be civ
It seems like people have lost the art of being civilized. We’re so quick to be rude and ill-tempered. We never stop and wonder where the other person is coming from. Civilization is lacking in this country and everyone is at their wits end with each other. Let’s support and encourage; not rip down.
We have forgotten the language of the stars, the meaning in how the moon moves. They are destroyed by lamplight and gasoline, biproducts of development, of productivity, of civilization. Are we more civilized for what we don’t remember? Are we less primitive for what we have lost?
To be civilized means that you can hold your own opinion while fully being able to respect others’ opinions. When you’re civilized, you shouldn’t want to see bloodshed, but you should want to see peace. To be civilized is to not be a savage.

“They’re really quite an interesting group.”
“Yes… I suppose they are.” A china cup clinked against the saucer.
“Too bad they can’t move past where they are.”
“Mmm… poor humans. Never going to fully be civilized.”
Civilized man is an oxymoron. He thinks it’s okay to beat in wife in private and peck her on the cheek in public. He devours raw flesh in the afternoons while drinking tea in pleasant company. The top hat is there to hide his headache. The bulbous pants are there to hide his boner.
There is no point to acting civilized. We’re not civilized. We’re barbarians on leashes. We’ve always been the ferals being tamed.
Civilized man travels far and wide achieving greatness growing with every moment. Never stopping, just growing, growing. Forever growing getting bigger with every moment, towering over the land, towering over the sea. For ever busy, so many things to see, so many things that need to be done, things to discover, things to advent. Forever growing forever knowing.

Dallon tried to do his political duty of civilizing the delinquents by arresting them and fining them for all the stuff they did wrong.
Sarah talked to them and gave them desserts and treated them like adults with better results.
Civility is a good thing, unless you are putting manners before necessity. Rules should never become more important than the cause.
