All this talk
about equality. The only thing people really have in common
is that they are all going to die.
-- Bob Dylan
1941-, American Musician,

The mandate
for equal opportunity doesn't dictate disregard for the
differences in candidates' qualities and skills. There is no
constitutional right to play ball. All there is a right to
compete for it on equal terms.
-- Tim III Ellis
American District Court Judge
Some will
always be above others. Destroy the inequality today, and it
will appear again tomorrow.
-- Ralph Waldo Emerson
1803-1882, American Poet,
Essayist
When a
bachelor of philosophy from the Antilles refuses to apply
for certification as a teacher on the grounds of his color I
say that philosophy has never saved anyone. When someone
else strives and strains to prove to me that black men are
as intelligent as white men I say that intelligence has
never saved anyone: and that is true, for, if philosophy and
intelligence are invoked to proclaim the equality of men,
they have also been employed to justify the extermination of
men.
-- Frantz Fanon
1925-1961, French
Psychiatrist
