John Rawls

Quotes

• “An intuitionist conception of justice is, one might say, but half a conception.”

• “It may be expedient but it is not just that some should have less in order that others may prosper.”

• “We must not be enticed by mathematically attractive assumptions into pretending that the contingencies of men's social positions and the asymmetries of their situations somehow even out in the end.”

• “Men resign themselves to their position should it ever occur to them to question it; and since all may view themselves as assigned their vocation, everyone is held to be equally fated and equally noble in the eyes of providence.”

• “The hazards of the generalized prisoner's dilemma are removed by the match between the right and the good.”
