Famous quotes containing the words rejecting and/or doctrine:
“Civilization is merely an advance in taste: accepting, all the time, nicer things, and rejecting nasty ones.”
—Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)
“The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... “Equality for equals, inequality for unequals”Mthat would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, “Never make equal what is unequal.””
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
