- We are a model country where gender equality is concerned.
- Tarja Halonen on Equality
- We are all different. Yet we are all God's children. We are all united behind this country and the common cause of freedom, justice, fairness, and equality. That is what unites us.
- Barbara Boxer on Equality
- We are also further than ever from equality of opportunity.
- Ferdinand Mount on Equality
- We have to restore power to the family, to the neighborhood, and the community with a non-market principle, a principle of equality, of charity, of let's-take-care-of-one-another. That's the creative challenge.
- Jerry Brown on Equality
- We live in a world where equality is pretty important.
- We must recover the element of quality in our traditional pursuit of equality. We must not, in opening our schools to everyone, confuse the idea that all should have equal chance with the notion that all have equal endowments.
- Adlai E. Stevenson on Equality
- We who are liberal and progressive know that the poor are our equals in every sense except that of being equal to us.
- Lionel Trilling on Equality
- We will have bigger bureaucracies, bigger labor unions, and bigger state-run corporations. It will be harder to be an entrepreneur because of punitive taxes and regulations. The rewards of success will be expropriated for the sake of attaining greater income equality.
- Arthur C. Brooks on Equality
- We will never have true civilization until we have learned to recognize the rights of others.
- Will Rogers on Equality
- Well, my personal mission statement is that we want marriage equality in all 50 states. We want it not to be a state-by-state issue. We don't want it to be something the majority is voting on. I don't think the civil rights of any minority should be in the hands of any majority.
- Jesse Tyler Ferguson on Equality
- Well, my view before was a Western view, and I certainly understand marriage equality and civil rights, equal rights for all, but having visited developing nations and some of the poorest nations in the world, I realize how deep it goes and how much work really needs to be done to create equality for all.
- Jason Mraz on Equality
- What is being called the UN 'gender architecture' is more like a shack. Women need a bigger global house if equality is ever to become a reality.
- Charlotte Bunch on Equality
- What's really sad is that so many young women between the ages of 16 and 25 are ignorant and they already believe that women get the same pay as men. They don't even really understand that equality hasn't happened with the pay force.
- Bell Hooks on Equality
- When I look at my daughter, who's 24, she is much more confident than I ever was and her expectations are higher. But I worry that there is a backlash brewing against progress on equality.
- Frances O'Grady on Equality
- Where terrorists offer injustice, disorder and destruction, the United States and its allies stand for freedom, fairness, equality, hope, and opportunity.
- John O. Brennan on Equality
- With patient and firm determination, I am going to press on for jobs. I'm going to press on for equality. I'm going to press on for the sake of our children. I'm going to press on for the sake of all those families who are struggling right now. I don't have time to feel sorry for myself. I don't have time to complain. I am going to press on.
- Barack Obama on Equality
- Women are the only exploited group in history to have been idealized into powerlessness.
- Erica Jong on Equality
- Women have a lot to say about how to advance women's rights, and governments need to learn from that, listen to the movement and respond.
- Charlotte Bunch on Equality
- Women have talent and intelligence but, due to social constraints and prejudices, it is still a long distance away from the goal of gender equality.
- Pratibha Patil on Equality
- Women will only have true equality when men share with them the responsibility of bringing up the next generation.
- Ruth Bader Ginsburg on Equality
- Women's rights is not only an abstraction, a cause it is also a personal affair. It is not only about us it is also about me and you. Just the two of us.
- Toni Morrison on Equality
