“Democracy arises out of the notion that those who are equal in any respect are equal in all respects; because men are equally free, they claim to be absolutely equal.”

“Democracy arose from men's thinking that if they are equal in any respect, they are equal absolutely.”

“Inequality is everywhere at the bottom of faction, for in general faction arises from men's striving for what is equal.”

“The only stable state is the one in which all men are equal before the law.”

“The weak are always anxious for justice and equality. The strong pay no heed to either.”

“Every actual democracy rests on the principle that not only are equals equal but unequals will not be treated equally. Democracy requires, therefore, first homogeneity and second—if the need arises elimination or eradication of heterogeneity.”

“All that exists is just and unjust and is equally justified in both respects.”
