Love will never be anywhere except where equality and unity are..... And there can be no love where love does not find equality or is not busy creating equality.

Equality, in a social sense, may be divided into that of condition, and that of rights. Equality of condition is incompatible with civilization, and is found only to exist in those communities that are but slightly removed from the savage state. In practice, it can only mean a common misery.
