When we forget our essential similarities, we forget how to get along, and that cannot but lead to prejudice, discrimination, and eventually, conflict. ~ G. Norman Lippert
Equality Of Cultures quotes by G. Norman Lippert
We are lucidly aware that achieving through mere physical force establishes the rules of a game from which there is no escape. When one grants oneself the moral justification to use force, one cannot logically deny it in one's enemies, for all moralities are relative. The dissimilarity between different human cultures alone suggests that one cannot establish universal goods and evils. ~ Michael Talbot
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Michael Talbot
I think that the Japanese culture is one of the very few cultures left that is its own entity. They're just so traditional and so specific in their ways. It's kind of untouched, it's not Americanized. ~ Toni Collette
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Toni Collette
But the feeling of scarcity does thrive in shame-prone cultures that are deeply steeped in comparison and fractured by disengagement. ~ Brene Brown
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Brene Brown
The arc of our history is toward more equality being expanded to more and more people. ~ George Takei
Equality Of Cultures quotes by George Takei
Like the alchemist of old, for ever searching for the philosopher's stone, the analyst to-day never stops looking for stronger moves to prevent the defender from establishing equality. ~ Savielly Tartakower
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Savielly Tartakower
It is the delight of vulgar talent to dazzle and to bind the beholder. But true genius seeks to defend us from itself. True geniuswill not impoverish, but will liberate, and add new sense. If a wise man should appear in our village, he would create, in those who conversed with him, a new consciousness of wealth, by opening their eyes to unobserved advantages; he would establish a sense of immovable equality, calm us with assurances that we could not be cheated; as every one would discern the checks and guarantees of condition. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson
What we are entering is a power age, and the importance of the power age lies in its ability, rightly used with the wage motive behind it, to increase and cheapen production so that all of us may have more of this world's goods. The way to liberty, the way to equality of opportunity, the way from empty phrases to actualities, lies through power ~ Henry Ford
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Henry Ford
Two great
contemporary scholars at the antipodes of the cultural spread of Hellenism,
Boethius in Rome (d. 525) and Sergius of Re¯ˇsayna in northern Mesopotamia ¯
(d. 536), conceived of the grand idea of translating all of Aristotle into Latin
and Syriac respectively.5 The conception is to their credit as individual thinkers
for their noble intentions; their failure indicates that the receiving cultures in
which they worked had not developed the need for this enterprise. Philosophy
in Latin was to develop, even if on some of the foundations laid by Boethius,
much later,6 while in Syriac it reached its highest point with BarHebraeus in the thirteenth century only after it had developed in Arabic and was translated
from it. ~ Dimitri Gutas
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Dimitri Gutas
Great companies have high cultures of accountability, it comes with this culture of criticism I was talking about before, and I think our culture is strong on that. ~ Steve Ballmer
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Steve Ballmer
If a single man demanded as much as a man with a wife and four children, then that would be a violation of the concept of economic equality. ~ Mahatma Gandhi
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Mahatma Gandhi
. . . the authors had developed indices that could be employed to measure the state of a civilization, to determine if society was healthy, in decline, or perhaps even dead. The indicators keyed in on everything from the accumulation of refuse to declines in everyday civility. They looked at how a society treated its most vulnerable citizens; examined a culture's architecture, gauging its scale in relation to humans and the surrounding natural world. One of the primary indicators, however, was a measure of the ability of a society's citizens to listen to each other and truly hear what was being said. It evaluated by gradations the ability of individuals to stand motionless for prolonged periods, receptive to their surroundings. ~ Robert H. Lieberman
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Robert H. Lieberman
Yet the women's misery is socually invisible. Despite our education and accomplishments, we are expected to keep our mouths shut and accept our infertility treatments as consolation prize. Our jobs are supposed to be our highest priority. We are expected to overlook the connection between our disappointment, the impossible ideology of equality, and the contraception that makes that ideology appear to be possible. ~ Jennifer Morse
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Jennifer Morse
There are no instances known to me of cultures having forsaken Truth or renounced the understanding in its widest sense. ~ Johan Huizinga
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Johan Huizinga
The authority of science ... promotes and encourages the activity of observing, comparing, measuring and ordering the physical characteristics of human bodies ... Cartesian epistemology and classical ideals produced forms of rationality, scientificity and objectivity that, though efficacious in the quest for truth and knowledge, prohibited the intelligibility and legitimacy of black equality ... In fact, to "think" such an idea was to be deemed irrational, barbaric or mad. ~ Cornel West
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Cornel West
His own exclamation: "Women should be free - as free as we are," struck to the root of a problem that it was agreed in his world to regard as nonexistent. "Nice" women, however wronged, would never claim the kind of freedom he meant, and generous-minded men like himself were therefore - in the heat of argument - the more chivalrously ready to concede it to them. Such verbal generosities were in fact only a humbugging disguise of the inexorable conventions that tied things together and bound people down to the old pattern. ~ Edith Wharton
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Edith Wharton
I believe music is a place everyone of us can go to. I don't care who you are, where you were born, what you do with your life. Everyone can come here in music and be equal. ~ Hayley Williams
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Hayley Williams
Eighty percent of all cultures are the same, it is the 20% that make a culture unique and slam dunks the brand promise to the customer. ~ Curt Coffman
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Curt Coffman
The Brit abroad is always the voice of caution. Persons of other cultures are known to be undisciplined, prone to leaning out of car windows and cooking with garlic. ~ Nick Harkaway
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Nick Harkaway
The human longings that are deep inside of us never go away. They exist across cultures; they exist throughout life. When people were first made, our deepest longing was to know and be known. And after the Fall, when we all got weird, it's still our deepest longing - but it's now also our deepest fear. ~ John Ortberg
Equality Of Cultures quotes by John Ortberg
Being from a minority culture, I realised the importance of looking at non-Western cultures in a positive way. ~ Ibn Warraq
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Ibn Warraq
Rapid growth in wealth inequality results in the inevitable isolation of a very small, very rich, very privileged section of the community from the material experiences of everyone else. And when this out-of-touch minority group is enfranchised to make the decisions on behalf of people they don't know, can't see, have no wish to understand, and think of entirely in dehumanised, transactional, abstract terms, the results for the rest of us are devastating. ~ Sally McManus
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Sally McManus
It's a romantic view of Canada. It's like Michael Moore saying we don't lock our doors in Canada. I lock my door mainly because my girlfriend wants me to lock the door, but mind you we lock our doors. It is a little simplistic to say that we blend easily back home with other cultures. It's difficult, but I think it's mainly a big city phenomenon. ~ Philippe Falardeau
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Philippe Falardeau
We must return to them their lawful rights, assure equality of justice - and then everybody leave everybody else to hell alone. Paternalistic - we show our prejudice in our paternalism - we downgrade their dignity. ~ John Howard Griffin
Equality Of Cultures quotes by John Howard Griffin
It has become fashionable to speak of the Enlightenment as an idiosyncratic construction by European males in a bygone era, one way of thinking among many different constructions generated across time by a legion of other minds in other cultures, each of which deserves careful and respectful attention. To which the only decent response is yes, of course - to a point. Creative thought is forever precious, and all knowledge has value. But what counts most in the long haul of history is seminality, not sentiment. If we ask whose ideas were the seeds of the dominant ethic and shared hopes of contemporary humanity, whose resulted in the most material advancement in history, whose were the first of their kind and today enjoy the most emulation, then in that sense the Enlightenment, despite the erosion of its original vision and despite the shakiness of some of its premises, has been the principal inspiration not just of Western high culture but, increasingly, of the entire world. ~ Edward O. Wilson
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Edward O. Wilson
No moral code or ethical principle, no piece of scripture or holy teaching, can be summoned to defend what we have allowed our country to become. ~ Matthew Desmond
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Matthew Desmond
...she had little use for separate but so-called equal. My mother understood from her Southern roots a basic principle that still rings true; where there's a white presence, there will be amenities. She wanted grocery stores with quality produce, and roads that got repaired and streeetlights that came on magically at dusk and garbage that got collectd on time. ~ Bridgett M. Davis
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Bridgett M. Davis
Absolute equality, that which means a perfect balance of all the struggling forces in all the planes, can never be in this world. Before you attain that state, the world will have become quite unfit for any kind of life, and no one will be there. We find, therefore, that all these ideas of the millennium and of absolute equality are not only impossible but also that, if we try to carry them out, they will lead us surely enough to the day of destruction. ~ Swami Vivekananda
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Swami Vivekananda
A defeat for humanity would be the failure to recognise the rights of two people who love each other.

A defeat for humanity is that people accept such hatred and discrimination into their hearts.

A defeat for humanity would be the failure of the church to recognise that nobody can control who a person loves.

A victory for humanity would be the dissolution of a theocratic dystopia that promotes anti-equality (aka "the Vatican") which has no place in a modern society. ~ Scott A. Butler
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Scott A. Butler
It's one of the Filter theories. Absorption into simulations. Cultures swirling out of the universe like dirty water down a plug. Derealization vortices. ~ Nick Land
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Nick Land
The most dangerous extremists know how to dress up their childish values in the language of transaction or universal principle. A right-wing extremist will claim she desires "freedom" above all else...But what she really means is that she wants freedom from having to deal with any values that do not map unto her own...A leftie extremist will say that he wants "equality" for all, but what he really means is that he never wants anyone to feel pain, to feel harmed, or to feel inferior. He doesn't want anyone to have to face moral gaps, ever. And he's willing to cause pain and adversity to others in the name of eliminating these moral gaps. ~ Mark Manson
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Mark Manson
The democratic ideal springs from the ideas of liberty, equality, majority rule through free elections, protection of the rights of minorities, and freedom to subscribe to multiple loyalties in matters of religion, economics, and politics rather than to a total loyalty to the state. The spirit of democracy is the idea of importance and worth in the individual, and faith in the kind of world where the individual can achieve as much of his potential as possible. ~ Saul Alinsky
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Saul Alinsky
Love for others and respect for their rights and their human dignity, irrespective of who or what they are, no matter what religion - or none - that they choose to follow, will bring about real change and set in motion proper relationships. With such relationships built on equality and trust, we can work together on so many of the threats to our common humanity. ~ Mairead Corrigan
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Mairead Corrigan
All men are created equal and all women are created equal as well, but [equality] seems much clearer when it comes to race issues. In the realms of man/woman, man/man, woman/woman love, it seems all up for grabs now. We are exploring so much, but I think we gotta go for the fight for all equality first. ~ Carly Simon
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Carly Simon
Places matter. Their rules, their scale, their design include or exclude civil society, pedestrianism, equality, diversity (economic and otherwise), understanding of where water comes from and garbage goes, consumption or conservation. They map our lives. ~ Rebecca Solnit
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Rebecca Solnit
I don't want to be included. Instead, I want to question who created the standard in the first place. After a lifetime of embodying difference, I have no desire to be equal. I want to deconstruct the structural power of a system that marked me out as different. I don't wish to be assimilated into the status quo. I want to be liberated from all the negative assumptions that my characteristics bring. The same onus is not on me to change. Instead it's the world around me.. ~ Reni Eddo-Lodge
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Reni Eddo-Lodge
I don't think we really think about where we get our equality from. There is a sense of feminism and women become passe, in my opinion. ~ Anastasia Griffith
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Anastasia Griffith
Freedom demands that we struggle for an extension of both equality and free expression, not regard one as inimical to the other. ~ Kenan Malik
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Kenan Malik
People may talk about the equality of the sexes! They are not equal. The silent smile of a sensible, loving woman will vanquish ten men. ~ Henry Ward Beecher
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Henry Ward Beecher
The movement of Pakistan which the Quaid-e-Azam launched was ethical in inspiration and ideological in content. The story of this movement is a story of the ideals of equality, fraternity and social and economic justice struggling against the forces of domination, exploitation, intolerance and tyranny. ~ Fatima Jinnah
Equality Of Cultures quotes by Fatima Jinnah
