When we shut people out, we wall ourselves in; When we stop building bridges, we start erecting fences.

When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall one by one, an unpitied sacrifice in a contemptible struggle. One touch of nature makes the whole world kin. Kindness is the golden chain by which society is bound together. When spiders unite, they can tie down a lion. We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools. The men who learn endurance, are they who call the whole world, brother. Imagine all the people living life in peace. You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join us, and the world will be as one. Love does not consist of gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction. United we stand; divided we fall.
