It is a many-stranded texture, with color and depth." --- Norman Cousins "Idiot, n. A member of a large and powerful tribe whose influence in human affairs has always been dominant and controlling." --- Ambrose Bierce "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere." --- Martin Luther King Jr. "No loss by flood and lightning, no destruction of cities and temples by hostile forces of nature, has deprived man of so many noble lives and impulses as those which his intolerance has destroyed." --- Helen Keller "Patience is not passive; on the contrary, it is active; it is concentrated strength." --- Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton "Prejudice is the child of ignorance." --- Hazlitt "Prejudice rarely survives experience." --- Eve Zibart  "Some people are down on what they are not up on."--- Author Unknown "Tolerance is the positive and cordial effort to understand another's beliefs, practices, and habits without necessarily sharing or accepting them." --- Joshua Lieban "When we lose the right to be different, we lose the privilege to be free." --- Charles Evans Hughes To see quotes on other topics, click here |
