Please enjoy these quotes about Equal from my collection of quotes and sayings.

my humanity draws from both,
my tendrils reach for the energies of each.

the lightness and the solidarity,
the ephemeral and the substantial.
The substantial is no more and no less
than the ephemeral - merely different.

A woman, if she be really your friend,
will have a sensitive regard for your character, honor, repute.
She will seldom counsel you to do a shabby thing:
for a woman friend always desires to be proud of you.
- Edward Bulwer-Lytton

merely because we respect that person's
other ideas or accomplishments.

in front of the heart and bow the head slightly.
