Both class and race survive education, and neither should. What is education then? If it doesn't help a human being to recognize that humanity is humanity, what is it for? So you can make a bigger salary than other people?

The eye of a human being is a microscope, which makes the world seem bigger than it really is.

We are either going to dissolve as a human race or we are going to break through into a new understanding of what it is to be a human being.

No matter the languages we speak or the colour of our skin, we share ancestors who planted rice on the banks of the Yangtze, who first domesticated horses on the steppes of the Ukraine, who hunted giant sloths in the forests of North and South America, and who laboured to build the Great Pyramid of Khufu.

Even when I'm playing a lawyer or a doctor, I want to play a person. A human being.

Everybody is a human being. We should be able to coexist with one another.
