Inequality
Inequality may refer to:
Society
A society is a group of individuals involved in persistent social interaction, or a large social group sharing the same geographical or social territory, typically subject to the same political authority and dominant cultural expectations. Societies are characterized by patterns of relationships (social relations) between individuals who share a distinctive culture and institutions; a given society may be described as the sum total of such relationships among its constituent of members. In the social sciences, a larger society often evinces stratification or dominance patterns in subgroups.
Society
As long as men are men, a poor society cannot be too poor to find a right order of life, nor a rich society too rich to have need to seek it.
R.H. Tawney, The Acquisitive Soceity (1921).
Society
Ah, you flavour everything; you are the vanille of society.
Sydney Smith, Lady Holland's Memoir, Volume I, p. 262. Reported in Hoyt's New Cyclopedia Of Practical Quotations (1922), p. 724–25.
Society
The rout is Folly's circle, which she draws
With magic wand. So potent is the spell,
That none decoy'd into that fatal ring,
Unless by Heaven's peculiar grace, escape.
There we grow early gray, but never wise.
William Cowper, The Task (1785), Book II, line 627.
