Basic Level

Famous quotes containing the words basic and/or level:

    It is a strange fact that freedom and equality, the two basic ideas of democracy, are to some extent contradictory. Logically considered, freedom and equality are mutually exclusive, just as society and the individual are mutually exclusive.
    Thomas Mann (1875–1955)

    All’s oblique;
    There’s nothing level in our cursed natures
    But direct villainy. Therefore be abhorred
    All feasts, societies, and throngs of men!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
