I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.

The worst form of inequality is to try to make unequal things equal.

Democracy... is a charming form of government, full of variety and disorder; and dispensing a sort of equality to equals and unequals alike.

Before God we are all equally wise - and equally foolish.

Until we get equality in education, we won't have an equal society.

Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.

If you want to see the true measure of a man, watch how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.

Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word, equality. But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude.

Equality is the soul of liberty; there is, in fact, no liberty without it.

I am free of all prejudices. I hate everyone equally.
