Intellect has nothing to do with equality except to respect it as a sublime convention.

Woman has always been man's dependent, if not his slave; the two sexes have never shaped the world in equality. And even today woman is heavily handicapped, though her situation is beginning to change.

Although the Jeffersonian Law ("All men are created equal") is the first article of the American faith, the facts of American life have demonstrated for some time now that it is an irksome faith to live by.

In place of equal respect, the nation offered women the Miss America beauty pageant, established in 1920-the same year women won the vote.

As women began to challenge their own internalized views of a woman's proper place, their desire and demand for equal status and free choice began to grow exponentially.

Naked I came into the world, naked I shall go out of it! And a very good thing too, for it reminds me that I am naked under my shirt, whatever its colour.

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

There can be no truer principle than this-that every individual of the community at large has an equal right to the protection of government.

When all candles be out, all cats be grey.

We clamor for equality chiefly in matters in which we ourselves cannot hope to obtain excellence.
