Quotes from Robert Spaemann

It is, in fact, a great mistake to think we must suppress observations of human differences if we are to do justice to human dignity. The dignity of the person is not touched by such observations, for the dignity of human beings as persons is not an object of observation but of recognition.

En toda disputa teórica subyace la idea de la existencia de una verdad común; si cada cual tuviera su propia verdad, no habría disputas. (32)
