“There is nothing so despicable as a secret society that is based upon religious prejudice and that will attempt to defeat a man because of his religious beliefs. Such a society is like a cockroach -- it thrives in the dark. So do those who combine for such an end.”
William Howard Taft
“I have no race prejudice. I think I have no color prejudices or caste prejudices nor creed prejudices. Indeed, I know it. I can stand any society. All that I care to know is that a man is a human being -- that is enough for me; he can't be any worse.”
Mark Twain
“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness.”
“All language reflects the prejudices of the society in which it evolved”
Casey Miller
“What are you trying to protect heterosexual marriages from? There isn't a limited amount of love in Iowa. It isn't a non-renewable resource. If Amy and Barbara or Mike and Steve love each other, it doesn't mean that John and Mary can't.”
Ed Fallon
“Those who seek that third option, who step above prejudice, who excite others to challenge the boundaries of society for the advancement and progression of humanity and rattle the status quo.... we tend to kill off.”
Marcus Gonzales
“Straight Americans need ... an education of the heart and soul. They must understand, to begin with, how it can feel to spend years denying your own deepest truths, to sit silently through classes, meals, and church services while people you love toss off remarks that brutalize your soul.”
Bruce Bawer
