Real Equality Frustrated

More From Mary Douglas

A society that puts equality - in the sense of equality of outcome - ahead of freedom will end up with neither equality or freedom. the use of force to achieve equality will destroy freedom. on the other hand, a society that puts freedom first will, as a happy by-product, end up with both greater freedom and greater equality. freedom means diversity but also mobility. it preserves the opportunity for today's less well off to become tomorrow's rich, and in the process, enables almost everyone, from top to bottom, to enjoy a richer and fuller life.
Mean Opportunity Hands
There are only two worlds - your world, which is the real world, and other worlds, the fantasy. worlds like this are worlds of the human imagination: their reality, or lack of reality, is not important. what is important is that they are there. these worlds provide an alternative. provide an escape. provide a threat. provide a dream, and power; provide refuge, and pain. they give your world meaning. they do not exist; and thus they are all that matters.
Dream Pain Real
Love will never be anywhere except where equality and unity are..... and there can be no love where love does not find equality or is not busy creating equality. nor is there any pleasure without equality. practice equality in human society. learn to love, esteem, consider all people like yourself. what happens to another, be it bad or good, pain or joy, ought to be as if it happened to you.
Pain Practice Creating
I believe in having each device secured and monitoring each device, rather than just monitoring holistically on the network, and then responding in short enough time for damage control.
Believe Damage Control Enough Time
Racists violate the principle of equality by giving greater weight to the interests of members of their own race when there is a clash between their interests and the interests of those of another race. sexists violate the principle of equality by favoring the interests of their own sex. similarly, speciesists allow the interests of their own species to override the greater interests of members of other species. the pattern is identical in each case.
Sex Animal Race
The vanity of existence is revealed in the whole form existence assumes: in the infiniteness of time and space contrasted with the finiteness of the individual in both; in the fleeting present as the sole form in which actuality exists; in the contingency and relativity of all things; in continual becoming without being; in continual desire without satisfaction; in the continual frustration of striving of which life consists. . . time is that by virtue of which everything becomes nothingness in our hands and loses all real value.

Philosophy is the thoughts of men about human thinking, reasoning and imagining, and the real values in human existence.
Philosophy Real Men
I am convinced that 1941 will be the crucial year of a great new order in europe. the world shall open up for everyone. privileges for individuals, the tyranny of certain nations and their financial rulers shall fall. and last of all this year will help to provide the foundations of a real understanding among peoples, and with it the certainty of conciliation among nations. . . . those nations who are still opposed to us will some day recognize the greater enemy within. then they will join us in a combined front, a front against jewish exploitation and racial degeneration.
