Quotations regarding 'Quality'
That's part of American greatness, is discrimination. Yes, sir. Inequality, I think, breeds freedom and gives a man opportunity.
Lester Maddox, American Politician (1915-2003)
Nobody can give you freedom. Nobody can give you equality or justice or anything. If you're a man, you take it.
Malcolm X, American Activist (1925-1965)
In a state therefore of great equality and virtue, where pure and simple manners prevailed, the increase of the human species would evidently be much greater than any increase that has been hitherto known.
Thomas Malthus, English Economist (1766-1834)
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, German Writer (1875-1955)
The people of Canada have worked hard to build a country that opens its doors to include all, regardless of their differences; a country that respects all, regardless of their differences; a country that demands equality for all, regardless of their differences.
Paul Martin, Canadian Politician (1938- )
In Canada, women's rights are a vital part of our effort to build a society of real equality - not just for some, but for all Canadians. A society in which women no longer encounter discrimination nor are shut out from opportunities open to others.
Paul Martin, Canadian Politician (1938- )
In science, all facts, no matter how trivial or banal, enjoy democratic equality.
Mary McCarthy, American Author (1912-1989)
American society will never completely understand the true meaning of equality.
Bryant H. McGill, American Poet (1969- )
And think of how we challenged the idea of a male dominated Parliament with All-Women shortlists and made the cause of gender equality central to our government. We were right to do so.
Ed Miliband, British Politician (1969- )
Yugoslavia is a multinational community and it can survive only under the conditions of full equality for all nations that live in it.
Slobodan Milosevic, Yugoslavian Criminal (1941-2006)
Equality means nothing unless incorporated into the institutions.
Slobodan Milosevic, Yugoslavian Criminal (1941-2006)
Rosa Parks was the queen mother of a movement whose single act of heroism sparked the movement for freedom, justice and equality. Her greatest contribution is that she told us a regular person can make a difference.
Marc Morial, American Politician (1958- )
Because Katrina put it out there, no one can play the pretend game anymore that there isn't poverty and inequality in this country. The Millions More Movement - Katrina gives it added significance.
Marc Morial, American Politician (1958- )
We are also further than ever from equality of opportunity.
Ferdinand Mount, British Writer (1939- )
The land is ours. It's not European and we have taken it, we have given it to the rightful people... Those of white extraction who happen to be in the country and are farming are welcome to do so, but they must do so on the basis of equality.
Robert Mugabe, Zimbabwean Statesman (1924- )
The cry of equality pulls everyone down.
Iris Murdoch, Irish Author (1919-1999)
As of today, we do not need expert reports by the authoritative analytical institutions to realise that the reasons for such a situation in our community lie in global inequality, poverty and illiteracy.
Nursultan Nazarbayev, Kazakhstani Politician (1940- )
Effective use of Braille is as important to the blind as independent mobility, knowledge in the use of adaptive technology, and the core belief that equality, opportunity and security are truly possible for all people who are blind.
Bob Ney, American Politician (1954- )
Candor is a compliment; it implies equality. It's how true friends talk.
Peggy Noonan, American Writer (1950- )
Civilization is built on a number of ultimate principles... respect for human life, the punishment of crimes against property and persons, the equality of all good citizens before the law... or, in a word justice.
Max Nordau, Hungarian Critic (1849-1923)
