"An emancipated society, on the other hand, would not be a unitary state, but the realization of universality in the reconciliation of differences"
- Theodor Adorno
About this Quote
The quote argues that a really free and equivalent society would not be an uniform or uniform state, however rather one in which diversity and distinctions are fixed up and celebrated. This suggests that individuals would be given the liberty to express their special identities and point of views without fear of repression or marginalization. Eventually, the outcome would be a society that values inclusivity and recognizes the dignity and worth of every person, despite their background or beliefs.
"Having soon discovered to be great, I must appear so, and therefore studiously avoided mixing in society, and wrapped myself in mystery, devoting my time to fasting and prayer"
"Without culture, and the relative freedom it implies, society, even when perfect, is but a jungle. This is why any authentic creation is a gift to the future"
