Quotes by Hüseyin Rahmi Gürpınar (?)

“Medeniyetin, gelişme düşüncesinin amacı birbirini öldürmeye uğraşmak mıdır, yoksa kardeşliğin kurulmasına çare aramak mı? Neden insan öldürmek tekniğinde en usta olan, savaş aletlerini en iyi yapan milletler en medeni, en ileri sayılıyorlar? Şimdiki milletlerin hiçbirisi meğerse medeni sıfatına layık değilmiş… Düşünülürse kan dökmek bakımından bugünkü ileri insanların mağaralarda, taş kovuklarında, adeta inlerde yaşayıp da üzerlerine saldırdıkları avlarını tırnaklarıyla, dişleriyle paralayarak yiyen vahşi atalarından çok farkları yok…”
