Famous quotes containing the words income and/or inequality:
“I know everybody’s income and what everybody earns,
And I carefully compare it with the income-tax returns;”
—Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)
“The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... “Equality for equals, inequality for unequals”Mthat would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, “Never make equal what is unequal.””
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
