Equality

That all men are equal is a proposition to which, at ordinary times, no sane human being has ever given his assent.
- Huxley, Aldous
Equality Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Equality

1.
By nature all men are equal in liberty, but not in other endowments.
Aquinas, St. Thomas

2.
The only stable state is the one in which all men are equal before the law.
Aristotle

3.
It is not true that people are naturally equal for no two people can be together for even a half an hour without one acquiring an evident superiority over the other.
Johnson, Samuel

4.
The deadly Hydra now is the hydra of Equality. Liberty, Equality and Fraternity is the three-fanged serpent.
Lawrence, D. H.

5.
Equality is the public recognition, effectively expressed in institutions and manners, of the principle that an equal degree of attention is due to the needs of all human beings.
Weil, Simone

6.
Some will always be above others. Destroy the inequality today, and it will appear again tomorrow.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

7.
We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
US Declaration of Independence

8.
What I am defending is the real rights of women. A woman should have the right to be in the home as a wife and mother.
Schlafly, Phyllis

9.
That all men are equal is a proposition which, at ordinary times, no sane individual has ever given his assent.
Aldous Huxley

10.
Modern equalitarian societies whether democratic or authoritarian in their political forms, always base themselves on the claim that they are making life happier. Happiness thus becomes the chief political issue -- in a sense, the only political issue -- and for that reason it can never be treated as an issue at all.
Warshow, Robert

11.
Equality, in a social sense, may be divided into that of condition and that of rights. Equality of condition is incompatible with civilization, and is found only to exist in those communities that are but slightly removed from the savage state. In practice, it can only mean a common misery.
Cooper, James F.

12.
All this talk about equality. The only thing people really have in common is that they are all going to die.
Dylan, Bob

13.
The intelligence suffers today automatically in consequence of the attack on all authority, advantage, or privilege. These things are not done away with, it is needless to say, but numerous scapegoats are made of the less politically powerful, to satisfy the egalitarian rage awakened.
Lewis, Wyndham

14.
Equal opportunity is good, but special privilege is better.
Chennault, Anna

15.
If the worker and his boss enjoy the same television program and visit the same resort places, if the typist is as attractively made up as the daughter of her employer, if the Negro owns a Cadillac, if they all read the same newspaper, then this assimilation indicates not the disappearance of classes, but the extent to which the needs and satisfactions that serve the preservation of the Establishment are shared by the underlying population.
Marcuse, Herbert

16.
The trauma of the Sixties persuaded me that my generation's egalitarianism was a sentimental error. I now see the hierarchical as both beautiful and necessary. Efficiency liberates; egalitarianism tangles, delays, blocks, deadens.
Paglia, Camille

17.
Men are equal; it is not birth but virtue that makes the difference.
Voltaire

18.
The love of democracy is that of equality.
Charles de Montesquieu

19.
The doctrine of equality! There exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.
Nietzsche, Friedrich

20.
That all men are equal is a proposition to which, at ordinary times, no sane human being has ever given his assent.
Huxley, Aldous

21.
Just as modern mass production requires the standardization of commodities, so the social process requires standardization of man, and this standardization is called equality.
Fromm, Erich

22.
Between persons of equal income there is no social distinction except the distinction of merit. Money is nothing: character, conduct, and capacity are everything. There would be great people and ordinary people and little people, but the great would always be those who had done great things, and never the idiots whose mothers had spoiled them and whose fathers had left them a hundred thousand a year; and the little would be persons of small minds and mean characters, and not poor persons who had never had a chance. That is why idiots are always in favor of inequality of income (their only chance of eminence), and the really great in favor of equality.
Shaw, George Bernard

23.
Six feet of earth make all men equal.
Proverb

24.
Nature has never read the Declaration of Independence. It continues to make us unequal.
Durant, William J.

25.
Subordination tends greatly to human happiness. Were we all upon an equality, we should have no other enjoyment than mere animal pleasure.
Johnson, Samuel

26.
The most mediocre of males feels himself a demigod as compared with women.
Beauvoir, Simone De

27.
A friend to everybody and to nobody is the same thing.
Proverb, Spanish

28.
Generally, employees who file complaints of discrimination do so as a last resort.
Fields, Rubye

29.
Equality consists in the same treatment of similar persons.
Aristotle

30.
In America everybody is of opinion that he has no social superiors, since all men are equal, but he does not admit that he has no social inferiors.
Russell, Bertrand

31.
It is not true that equality is a law of nature. Nature has no equality. Its sovereign law is subordination and dependence.
Marquis de Vauvenargues

32.
I will feel equality has arrived when we can elect to office women who are as unqualified as some of the men who are already there.
Reagan, Maureen

33.
We are all alike, on the inside.
Twain, Mark

34.
Perfect love cannot be without equality.
Proverb, Scottish

35.
No advance in wealth, no softening of manners, no reform or revolution has ever brought human equality a millimeter nearer.
Orwell, George

36.
Prosperity or egalitarianism -- you have to choose. I favor freedom -- you never achieve real equality anyway: you simply sacrifice prosperity for an illusion.
Llosa, Mario Vargas

37.
All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.
Orwell, George

38.
The battle for women's rights has been largely won.
Thatcher, Margaret

39.
The beginning of reform is not so much to equalize property as to train the noble sort of natures not to desire more, and to prevent the lower from getting more.
Aristotle

40.
All people are equal, it is not birth, it is virtue alone that makes the difference.
Voltaire

41.
There has to be positive action that allows the most disadvantaged people to get their fair share of job opportunities.
Burton, Paul

42.
We've chosen the path to equality, don't let them turn us around.
Ferraro, Geraldine

43.
Equality...is the result of human organization. We are not born equal.
Hannah Arendt

44.
When a bachelor of philosophy from the Antilles refuses to apply for certification as a teacher on the grounds of his color I say that philosophy has never saved anyone. When someone else strives and strains to prove to me that black men are as intelligent as white men I say that intelligence has never saved anyone: and that is true, for, if philosophy and intelligence are invoked to proclaim the equality of men, they have also been employed to justify the extermination of men.
Fanon, Frantz

45.
An earthly kingdom cannot exist without inequality of persons. Some must be free, some serfs, some rulers, some subjects.
Luther, Martin

46.
The worst form of inequality is to try to make unequal things equal.
Aristotle

47.
You cannot have all chiefs; you gotta have Indians too.
Proverb, American

48.
The mandate for equal opportunity doesn't dictate disregard for the differences in candidates' qualities and skills. There is no constitutional right to play ball.All there is a right to compete for it on equal terms.
Ellis, Tim III

49.
The legacy of women's war work is our present post-industrial employment structure. It was the war that created the demand for a technologically advanced, de-skilled, low-paid, non-unionized female workforce and paved the way for making part-time work the norm for married women now.A generation later, it was the daughters of wartime women workers who completed their mothers' campaign for equal pay.
Grant, Linda

50.
Unless man is committed to the belief that all mankind are his brothers, then he labors in vain and hypocritically in the vineyards of equality.
Adam Clayton Powell Jr.
