Inequality Measures

Famous quotes containing the words inequality and/or measures:

    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)

    It seems that American patriotism measures itself against an outcast group. The right Americans are the right Americans because they’re not like the wrong Americans, who are not really Americans.
    Eric J. Hobsbawm (b. 1917)
