I have met men and women and men and women: they are all sizes: yet they are all one size:I have never so far met a man or a woman little enough for me to be arrogant with:I have never so far met a man or a woman big enough for me to humble myself to:Men and women dont seem to me made to be figured upon: they are made to be immeasurable:They dont seem to me made to be accepted or rejected: they are made to be my comrades:We are all so much alike I dont see how we could be different:We are all so different I don’t see how we could fail to be alike:A few horizons added to a man’s dream: do they make one man better than another?A few inches added to a man’s waist: do they make one man superior to another?From way up these are such minor matters: the wave drops away in the sea:From way up our castes and borderlines are such minor matters: they lapse away in the soul:For we are in the end not masters and slaves, not up and down: we are only brothers and sisters.
I have met men and women and men and women: they are all sizes: yet they are all one size:
I have never so far met a man or a woman little enough for me to be arrogant with:
I have never so far met a man or a woman big enough for me to humble myself to:
Men and women dont seem to me made to be figured upon: they are made to be immeasurable:
They dont seem to me made to be accepted or rejected: they are made to be my comrades:
We are all so much alike I dont see how we could be different:
We are all so different I don’t see how we could fail to be alike:
A few horizons added to a man’s dream: do they make one man better than another?
A few inches added to a man’s waist: do they make one man superior to another?
From way up these are such minor matters: the wave drops away in the sea:
From way up our castes and borderlines are such minor matters: they lapse away in the soul:
For we are in the end not masters and slaves, not up and down: we are only brothers and sisters.
