“What is tolerance? -- it is the consequence of humanity. We are all formed of frailty and error; let us pardon reciprocally each other's folly -- that is the first law of nature.” -- Voltaire “The problem to be faced is: how to combine loyalty to one's own tradition with reverence for different traditions.” -- Abraham Joshua Heschel “Human diversity makes tolerance more than a virtue; it makes it a requirement for survival.” -- Rene Dubos, Celebrations of Life, 1981 “What has always made the state of hell on earth is precisely that man has tried to make it his heaven.” -- Friedrich Hoelderlin, 1797 "I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. ... corporations have been enthroned and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed." U.S. President Abraham Lincoln, Nov. 21, 1864 (letter to Col. William F. Elkins) Ref: "The Lincoln Encyclopedia", Archer H. Shaw (Macmillan, 1950, NY)
