QUOTES:

This country will not be a good place for any of us to live in unless we make it a good place for all of us to live in.

— Theodore Roosevelt, American adventurer and 26th president (1858-1919)

The general feeling is, if you don't treat everyone the same you're showing partiality. To me, that's when you show the most partiality, when you treat everyone the same. You must give each individual the treatment that you feel he earns and deserves, recognizing at all times that you're imperfect and you're going to be incorrect oftentimes in your judgment.

John Wooden  

It is not fair to ask of others what you are unwilling to do yourself ~    Eleanor Roosevelt

When I was a young coach I used to say, "Treat everybody alike." That's baloney. Treat everybody fairly.

Bear Bryant  

Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are a good person is like expecting the bull not to charge you because you are a vegetarian.

Harold Kushner
