Quote by Konstantin Stanislavisky

Remember this practical piece of advice: Never come into the theatre with mud on your feet. Leave your dust and dirt outside.

The diversity of mankind is a basic postulate of our knowledge of human beings. But if mankind is diverse and individuated, then how can anyone propose equality as an ideal? Every year, scholars hold Conferences on Equality and call for greater equality, and no one challenges the basic tenet. But what justification can equality find in the nature of man?
