Page 64 - groups by stronger, enslavement of the conquered, and the founding of permanent social stratification upon this arrangement, was merely the inevitable working out of the law of the survival of the fittest in the struggle for existence. It is accusing the order of nature to apply the epithets "wrong" and "guilt" to these stages in the evolution of society.
Page 702 - each individual should be put to the use for which nature intended him, one to one work, and then every man would do his own business, and be one and not many; and so the whole city would be one and not many
Page 715 - But whether such a one exists, or ever will exist in fact, is no matter; for he will live after the manner of that city, having nothing to do with any other.
Page 711 - remain in the upper world; but this must not be allowed; they must be made to descend again among the prisoners in the den, and partake of their labors and honors, whether they are worth having or not.
