Italian - Politician

History is full of the dead weight of things which have escaped the control of the mind, yet drive man on with a blind force.

F. M. Powicke

Indifference elicits no response. Indifference is not a response. Indifference is not a beginning; it is an end. And, therefore, indifference is always the friend of the enemy, for it benefits the aggressor - never his victim, whose pain is magnified when he or she feels forgotten.

Elie Wiesel

I prefer my history dead. Dead history is writ in ink, the living sort in blood.

George R. R. Martin

The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. The opposite of art is not ugliness, it's indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, it's indifference.

Elie Wiesel

So now I have sworn to bury All this dead body of hate I feel so free and so clear By the loss of that dead weight

Alfred Lord Tennyson

What sets black people apart is not some deficit in personal responsibility. It's the weight on our shoulders. That is what's actually different. We have the weight and burden of history.

Ta-Nehisi Coates

The opposite of love is not hate, but indifference. Indifference creates evil. Hatred is evil itself. Indifference is what allows evil to be strong, what gives it power.

Elie Wiesel

We have come more and more under the dominance of mechanics and sacrificed living humanity to the dead rhythm of the machine without most of us even being conscious of the monstrosity of the procedure. Hence we frequently deal with such matters with indifference and in cold blood as if we handled dead things and not the destinies of men.

Rudolf Rocker

Progress is man's indifference to the lessons of history.

Len Deighton

Barcelona is a very old city in which you can feel the weight of history; it is haunted by history. You cannot walk around it without perceiving it.

Carlos Ruiz Zafon

One of the real dangers of our time is people's indifference to history.

Dale Jamieson

The huge, turgid work of history, sinking under the weight of its own 'politically correct' thesis and its foot- and source notes, is not the British way of writing history, and never has been.

Michael Korda

Indifference of every kind is reprehensible, even indifference towards one's self.

Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach

There is so much indifference in the face of suffering. May we overcome indifference with concrete acts of charity.

Pope Francis

For weight gain, one must do cardio in the evening and for weight loss, in the morning. So, while gaining weight, I did weight training in the mornings and light cardio in the evenings.

Atul Kulkarni

Every time someone starts talking about weight, it takes away from the fight. No one is born at that weight. We grew into that weight. It is all about the challenge, more so than the weight.

Evander Holyfield
