“It is easy to make things hard, but hard to make them easy”
Rutger Bregman, Humankind: A Hopeful History

Rutger Bregman
“Dictators and despots, governors and generals-they all to often resort to brute force to prevent scenarios that exist only in their own heads, on the assumption that the average Joe is ruled by self-interest, just like them.”
Rutger Bregman, Humankind: A Hopeful History

Rutger Bregman
“The news, according to dozens of studies, is a mental health hazard.”
Rutger Bregman, Humankind: A Hopeful History

Rutger Bregman
“People in power literally act like someone with brain damage. Not only are they more impulsive, self-centred, reckless, arrogant and rude than average, they are more likely to cheat on their spouses, are less attentive to other people and less interested in others’ perspectives. They’re also more shameless,”
Rutger Bregman, Humankind: A Hopeful History

Rutger Bregman
“One thing is certain: a better world doesn’t start with more empathy. If anything, empathy makes us less forgiving, because the more we identify with victims, the more we generalise about our enemies.37 The bright spotlight we shine on our chosen few makes us blind to the perspective of our adversaries, because everybody else falls outside our view.38”
Rutger Bregman, Humankind: A Hopeful History – from the presenter of the 2025 BBC ‘Moral Revolution’ Reith lectures
