Margaret Thatcher (1925–2013) British stateswoman and politician
Speech in the House of Commons (24 November 1976) http://www.margaretthatcher.org/document/103146 <br class="br">Leader of the Opposition <br class="br">Context: The word “equality” is often used, but, wisely, rarely defined. The moment one tries to define it, one gets into great difficulty. For example, it cannot mean equality of incomes or earnings; otherwise, we would not need more than one union. Indeed, we would not need one union. If we are to have opportunity, we cannot have equality, because the two are opposite. We may have equality of opportunity, but if the only opportunity is to be equal, it is not opportunity.

Robert Nozick book Anarchy, State, and Utopia
Source: Anarchy, State, and Utopia (1974), Ch. 7 : Distributive Justice, Section I, The Entitlement Theory, p. 152

“From the very nature of progress, all ages must be transitional.”
Gertrude Stein (1874–1946) American art collector and experimental writer of novels, poetry and plays
"Form and Intelligibility," from The Radcliffe Manuscripts (1949); written in 1894 as an undergraduate at Radcliffe College
Context: From the very nature of progress, all ages must be transitional. If they were not, the world would be at a stand-still and death would speedily ensue. It is one of the tamest of platitudes but it is always introduced by a flourish of trumpets.
