Coco Chanel

George Santayana

Americans are so enamored of equality that they would rather be equal in slavery than unequal in freedom.
Alexis De Tocqueville
A true revolution of values will soon cause us to question the fairness and justice of many of our past and present policies. ... A true revolution of values will soon look uneasily on the glaring contrast of poverty and wealth. With righteous indignation, it will look across the seas and see individual capitalists of the West investing huge sums of money in Asia, Africa, and South America, only to take the profits out with no concern for the social betterment of the countries, and say, 'This is not just.' It will look at our alliance with the landed gentry of South America and say, 'This is not just.' The Western arrogance of feeling that it has everything to teach others and nothing to learn from them is not just.
Martin Luther King Jr.
American liberty is premised on the accountability of free men and women for what they have done, not for what they may do.
Jon Newman
