A Quote by Lori Lightfoot

Fundamentally, if people don't feel like their lives are valued and they don't value their lives, they're not going to value their neighbors' lives. — © Lori Lightfoot
Fundamentally, if people don't feel like their lives are valued and they don't value their lives, they're not going to value their neighbors' lives.
I think it's really important to remind, reinforce people that their lives have value, you know? That their lives have worth.
Real value means people value-and creating value really means helping people choose better lives.
The rapid proliferation of cell phones in Afghanistan proves that anything that adds value to people's lives spreads like brushfire - and commerce is certainly a force that could add value for Afghanis.
Black lives do matter, and our lives do hold value.
All lives matter, including black lives, which is a value we should be striving for rather than condemning.
I hope to see a more diversified country, where people can view everyone as equal individuals, where people can start seeing our young black and brown boys and girls and valuing their lives as we would value other lives.
I think that humanity is at an all-time low in how we value life, especially among young Black people. We just don't really value each other's lives .
Our best hope for the future is not to get people to think of all humanity as family - that's impossible. It lies, instead, in an appreciation of the fact that, even if we don't empathize with distant strangers, their lives have the same value as the lives of those we love.
Our best hope for the future [...] lies in an appreciation of the fact that, even if we don’t empathize with distant strangers, their lives have the same value as the lives of those we love.
Children learn what they live. If a child lives with criticism... he learns to condemn. If he lives with hostility... he learns to fight. If he lives with ridicule... he learns to be shy. If he lives with shame... he learns to be guilty. If he lives with tolerance... he learns confidence. If he lives with praise... he learns to appreciate. If he lives with fairness... he learns about justice
Companies can add value and simultaneously promote themselves if their product or service truly improves the lives of their customers. I mean really improve lives, not wishful thinking, rationalization. That's the acid test.
We will never recognize the true value of our own lives until we affirm the value in the life of others.
Interest in the lives of others, the high evaluation of these lives, what are they but the overflow of the interest a man finds in himself, the value he attributes to his own being?.
The value of our lives is not determined by what we do for ourselves. The value of our lives is determined by what we do for others.
We know that global capitalism, and the commercially driven culture that comes with it, can be a powerful solvent, but many of us who benefit from it economically can regret the effect it has on our own lives as well as on the lives of others, and we should not view ourselves as helpless in the face of an irresistible force, especially since we may very well be complicit. We should be prepared to help others or to leave them be to sustain their cultures if we judge that they are of intrinsic value or of value to their members.
My politics, and my religion as well, are based entirely on the loveliness and value of ordinary human lives. The creaky apparatus called politics shelters or oppresses or threatens these lives, and is therefore of interest.
