PHILOSOPHY

"Fear fundamentalism: religious fundamentalism as well as secular fundamentalism. Both are expressions of intolerance, which is incompatible with pluralism. And pluralism is not only the essence of democracy; it is, above all, the natural result of freedom, which is the essence of human nature."
--Javier Martinez-Torrón

"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness... Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime."
--Mark Twain
