Famous quotes containing the words measure and/or uniformity:
“Trying to love your children equally is a losing battle. Your childrens scorecards will never match your own. No matter how meticulously you measure and mete out your love and attention, and material gifts, it will never feel truly equal to your children. . . . Your children will need different things at different times, and true equality wont really serve their different needs very well, anyway.”
—Marianne E. Neifert (20th century)
“The diversity in the faculties of men, from which the rights of property originate, is not less an insuperable obstacle to a uniformity of interests. The protection of these faculties is the first object of government.”
—James Madison (17511836)
