Traditions
deserve to be respected only insofar as they are respectable – that is,
exactly insofar as they themselves respect the fundamental rights of men and

negatively affects the rights of others it will most likely be abolished

Looking at the earth from space, one
wonders why we can’t get along decently.

Many countries
go to war and then towards reconciliation. The history of mankind is full of

must forgive and forget what has happened between who was once our enemy.
|
Martin Luther King, Jr

are not to be judged by their appearance but by what defines them as humans.
