A political order begins to decay when it confuses the worth of a person with the office he holds, the gifts he possesses, or the work he performs. It decays just as quickly when it tries to repair this confusion by denying all real difference. Both errors begin in the same place: they forget what man is.

Equality of dignity is not sameness of function
A friendship in which both parties play the same role is no friendship.
