As for slavery, there is no need for me to speak of its bad aspects. the only thing requiring explanation is the good side of slavery. i do not mean indirect slavery, the slavery of proletariat; i mean direct slavery, the slavery of the blacks in surinam, in brazil, in the southern regions of north america. direct slavery is as much the pivot upon which our present-day industrialism turns as are machinery, credit, etc. … slavery is therefore an economic category of paramount importance.

A society that puts equality - in the sense of equality of outcome - ahead of freedom will end up with neither equality or freedom. the use of force to achieve equality will destroy freedom. on the other hand, a society that puts freedom first will, as a happy by-product, end up with both greater freedom and greater equality. freedom means diversity but also mobility. it preserves the opportunity for today's less well off to become tomorrow's rich, and in the process, enables almost everyone, from top to bottom, to enjoy a richer and fuller life.

To call woman the weaker sex is a libel; it is man's injustice to woman. if by strength is meant brute strength, then, indeed, is woman less brute than man. if by strength is meant moral power, then woman is immeasurably man's superior. has she not greater intuition, is she not more self-sacrificing, has she not greater powers of endurance, has she not greater courage? without her, man could not be. if nonviolence is the law of our being, the future is with woman. who can make a more effective appeal to the heart than woman?

The book can't compete with the screen. it couldn't compete beginning with the movie screen. it couldn't compete with the television screen and it can't compete with the computer screen i don't think. and now we have all those screens so against all those screens i think the book can't measure up.
