Inequality is not just an issue between individuals, between classes, between regions. It's between urban and rural.

Michael Ignatieff

I think, unfortunately, we've always lived in a world of massive inequality: inequality between the haves and the have-nots, inequality between men and women that not only exists temporally but geographically as well.

O. T. Fagbenle

There's no question that there's been a breach in the trust between urban - especially urban community, African-American and minority communities and the police in major American cities.

Mark Shields

We have too large a disparity in the world; we need more inclusiveness… If we continue to have uninclusive growth and we continue with the unemployment situation, particularly youth unemployment, our global society is not sustainable.

Klaus Schwab

What is different between national inequality and global inequality is you have another element there that is sometimes forgotten: what matters for global inequality is relative growth rates between poor and rich countries.

Branko Milanovic

There are some people who say that they?re concerned only with poverty but not inequality. But I don?t think that is a sustainable thought.

Amartya Sen

Matt Rosendale

I think that the main issue with inequality is not the gap between the rich and the poor. It is the gap between the earnings of top business leaders and the salaries of academics and journalists.

Arnold Kling

I think that the dialogue between police officers and the black community has to get better, but not better in a way where, 'Oh, let's talk about it when something horrible happens.' The dialogue has to be going on consistently, every day.

Antoine Fuqua

If we aim deliberately at the impoverishment of Central Europe, vengeance, I dare predict, will not limp.

John Maynard Keynes

The devotion that young Chinese feel to the Internet is driven by deep factors ranging from youth unemployment and income inequality to political repression and the demographic imbalance between men and women.

Evan Osnos

We are starting in the days where there is no discrimination, no distinction between one community and another, no discrimination between one caste or creed and another. We are starting with this fundamental principle: that we are all citizens, and equal citizens, of one State.

Muhammad Ali Jinnah
