I see the human in everyone and everything. No one is more important than anyone else; I still hang out with my high school friends.
The human body is the best picture of the human soul.
We must become bigger than we have been: more courageous, greater in spirit, larger in outlook. We must become members of a new race, overcoming petty prejudice, owing our ultimate allegiance not to nations but to our fellow men within the human community.
