It is not mere chance that makes families speak of a child who is 'extraordinary for his age' and also of an old man who is 'extraordinary for his age'; the extraordinariness lies in their behaving like human beings when they are either not yet or no longer men.

To be moral is to discover fundamentally ones own being.

If women really did have complete equality with men, society would be completely overturned.

To protest in the name of morality against 'excesses' or 'abuses' is an error which hints on active complicity. There are no 'abuses' or 'excesses' here, simpily an all-pervasive system.

Society cares for the individual only so far as he is profitable.

You have never had any confidence in him. And if he has no confidence in himself it is because he sees himself through your eyes.
