Dissimilarity Quotes
Education means an assimilation of white American culture. It decreases the dissimilarity of the Negroes from other Americans.
Gunnar Myrdal
It is something like fire working on wood; the heat draws out all the moisture, the greenness and the heaviness. It grows warm, begins to glow, becomes more like the fire itself. As the wood slowly takes on the likeness of fire, the dissimilarity between the two grows less until finally, in a rapid movement, the fire takes from the wood its own substance; the wood becomes fire and loses at the same time its separateness and inequality, since it has become fire. No longer merely like fire, it has become one substance with the fire. Likeness is lost in union.
Johannes Tauler
The similarity between Christ and Socrates consists essentially in their dissimilarity. Just as philosophy begins with doubt, so also a life that may be called human begins with irony.
Søren Kierkegaard
It is not the similarity or dissimilarity of individuals that constitutes a group, but interdependence of fate.
Kurt Lewin
Dissimilarity of habit tends more than anything to destroy affection.
Aristotle
