"What is tolerance? It is the consequence..." - Quote by Voltaire

“He who thinks himself wise, O heavens! is a great fool.”

“Even in those cities which seem to enjoy the blessings of peace, and where the arts florish, the inhabitants are devoured by envy, cares and anxieties, which are greater plagues than any expirienced in a town when it is under siege.”

“‎Life is a shipwreck, but we must not forget to sing in the lifeboats.”

“Discord is the great ill of mankind; and tolerance is the only remedy for it.”

“My parents taught me never to judge others based on whom they love, what color their skin is, or their religion.”

“Never even attempt to disturb anyone's tendencies.”

“Humankind has to get out of violence only through non-violence. Hatred can be overcome only by love. Counter - hatred only increases the surface as well as the depth of hatred.”

“You know, when real trouble comes your humanity is awakened. The fundamental human experience is that of compassion.”

“The first premise of all human history is, of course, the existence of living human individuals. Thus the first fact to be established is the physical organisation of these individuals and their consequent relation to the rest of nature.”
