He who is unable to live in society, or who has no need because he is sufficient for himself, must be either a beast or a god. Aristotle Society
That the caste system must be abolished if the Hindu society is to be reconstructed on the basis of equality, goes without saying. Untouchability has its roots in the caste system. They cannot expect the Brahmins to rise in revolt against the caste system. Also we cannot rely upon the non-Brahmins and ask them to fight our battle. B. R. Ambedkar Society
During the Great Depression, African Americans were faced with problems that were not unlike those experienced by the most disadvantaged groups in society.

To educate a man in mind and not in morals is to educate a menace to society. Theodore Roosevelt Society
The glory of justice and the majesty of law are created not just by the Constitution - nor by the courts - nor by the officers of the law - nor by the lawyers - but by the men and women who constitute our society - who are the protectors of the law as they are themselves protected by the law.

We need an equal opportunity society, one in which government does not see its job as picking winners and losers. Where do you go if you want special favors? Government.
