Famous quotes containing the words brotherhood of, brotherhood and/or mark:

    The brotherhood of men does not imply their equality. Families have their fools and their men of genius, their black sheep and their saints, their worldly successes and their worldly failures. A man should treat his brothers lovingly and with justice, according to the deserts of each. But the deserts of every brother are not the same.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    The brotherhood of man is evoked by particular men according to their circumstances. But it seldom extends to all men. In the name of our freedom and our brotherhood we are prepared to blow up the other half of mankind and to be blown up in our turn.
    —R.D. (Ronald Davi)

    He was the mark and glass, copy and book,
    That fashioned others.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
