Women in Love

CHAPTER VIII
64/84

But no equality.
'But I, myself, who am myself, what have I to do with equality with any other man or woman?
In the spirit, I am as separate as one star is from another, as different in quality and quantity.

Establish a state on THAT.

One man isn't any better than another, not because they are equal, but because they are intrinsically OTHER, that there is no term of comparison.

The minute you begin to compare, one man is seen to be far better than another, all the inequality you can imagine is there by nature.
