There are no differences but differences of degree between different degrees of difference and no difference. William James
In that little party there was not one who would desert another; yet we were of different countries, different colours, different races, different religions--and one of us was of a different world. Edgar Rice Burroughs
...asked by his wife whether he wants to have his bowling shoes laced over or laced under, Archie Bunker answers the question: "What's the difference?" Being a reader of sublime simplicity, his wife replies by patiently explaining the difference between lacing over and lacing under, whatever this may be, but provokes only ire.

This point is often missed by evangelical feminists. They conclude that a difference in function necessarily involves a difference in essence; i. e., if men are in authority over women, then women must be inferior.

We become not a melting pot but a beautiful mosaic. Different people, different beliefs, different yearnings, different hopes, different dreams. Jimmy Carter
The Little Friend is a long book. It's also completely different from my first novel: different landscape, different characters, different use of language and diction, different approach to story. Donna Tartt
The President of the United States is called upon to make the right decision at the right time and you've seen people who voted for the Iraq war and voted to fund the war, now they have a different position. People who voted for the PATRIOT act, now they have different position. People who voted for China trade, now they have a different position. People who voted for Yucca Mountain, now they have a different position. Just imagine what it would be like to have a President who's right the... Dennis Kucinich
There is very little difference in people, but that little difference makes a big difference. The little difference is attitude. W. Clement Stone
Blaise Pascal quote: "Words differently arranged have different meanings, and..."
Words differently arranged have different meanings, and meanings differently arranged have different effects. Blaise Pascal
In short, Europe’s colonization of Africa had nothing to do with differences between European and African peoples themselves, as white racists assume. Rather, it was due to accidents of geography and biogeography—in particular, to the continents’ different areas, axes, and suites of wild plant and animal species. That is, the different historical trajectories of Africa and Europe stem ultimately from differences in real estate. Jared Diamond
Justice. To be ever ready to admit that another person is something quite different from what we read when he is there (or when we think about him).
