We may not always agree with every one of our neighbors. That's life. And it's part of living in such a diverse and dense city.

Michael Bloomberg
Life, Respect, Living

Years ago, it was pretty hard to get people to empathize even a little bit with scaly, cold-blooded critters; now, thanks a lot to good PR from television, it is easier to get the message of reptile conservation and tolerance across.

Romulus Whitaker
Good, Thankful, Pretty
Globalisation has obliterated distance, not just physically but also, most dangerously, mentally. It creates the illusion of intimacy when, in fact, the mental distances have changed little.

Respect, Fact, Necessary
Tolerance is the virtue of the man without convictions.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
Virtue
I have a zero tolerance for sanctimonious morons who try to scare people.

Mark McKinnon

Mel Gibson
Successful, Learn, Almost

Bernie Mac
Home, Game, Year
