“In The Federalist, James Madison called the rage for equality 'a wicked project.' People differ and rewards differ-that's the essence of both liberty and justice. No nation that rewards effort, talent, inventiveness and luck can even pretend to cherish equal outcomes. In an inventive and dynamic society, equal (even relatively equal) incomes can be achieved only by abandoning liberty for tyranny.” PeopleNationsJusticeEffortLibertyTalentEqualProjectsEssenceLuckRewardsRageTyrannyIncomeOutcomesWickedCherishMadisonFederalistLiberty And JusticeInventiveness Author:Michael Novak
“The entrance of the woman with equal rights into practical modern life, her new freedom, her finding herself side by side with men in the streets, offices, professions, factories, sports, and now even in political and military life, is one of those dissolutive phenomena in which, in most cases, it is difficult to perceive anything positive. In essence, all this is simply the renunciation of the woman's right to be a woman.” MenPoliticalLife IsSportsDifficultSidesCasesRightsStreetsModernMilitaryEqualOfficeFindingsEssenceProfessionPracticalsPerceiveFactoriesEqual RightsModern LifeEntrancesRenunciationMilitary Life Author:Julius Evola
“None of us were prepared to hear what Justice Scalia said, because in essence what he was saying is let`s go back to pre-Board of Education - Brown versus Board of Education, 1950s America where blacks are doing all right going to black schools or schools where blacks go. He said go to less advanced schools where they do all right. We`re going back to separate but equal.” SaidSchoolAmericaBlackJusticeEqualEssencePreparedBoardsBrownVersusBoard Of EducationSeparate But EqualJustice Scalia Author:Chris Hayes

“Let me go over this again on the reclaiming the civil rights movement. People of faith that believe that you have an equal right to justice - that is the essence.

“To rest the case for equal treatment of national or racial minorities on the assumption that they do not differ from other men is implicitly to admit that factual inequality would justify unequal treatment, and the proof that some differences do, in fact, exist would not be long in forthcoming. It is of the essence of the demand for equality before the law that people should be treated alike in spite of the fact that they are different.” PeopleMenShouldLongDifferentFactsLawDifferencesCasesDemandEqualEssenceProofTreatedInequalityAssumptionSpiteMinoritiesTreatmentJustifyFactualForthcomingEqual Treatment Author:Friedrich August von Hayek
