I don’t want enemies. I want friends, and I want them in all shapes, sizes, and colors, and loving whoever they want to.
Kevin HartIf a child from an Amazonian hunter-gatherer tribe comes to Boston, is raised in Boston, that child will be indistinguishable in language capacities from my children growing up here, and vice versa.
Noam ChomskyIf proud Americans can be who they are and boldly stand at the altar with who they love then surely, surely we can give everyone in this country a fair chance at that great American Dream.
Michelle ObamaEven after Independence, we have had to face the poison of casteism and communalism. How long these evils will continue? Whom does it benefit?
Narendra ModiThe best things and best people rise out of their separateness; I’m against a homogenized society because I want the cream to rise.
Robert FrostEvery nation ridicules other nations, and all are right.
Arthur SchopenhauerIt were not best that we should all think alike; it is difference of opinion that makes horse races.
Mark TwainBlack and brown pride have been taught in my household for a long time.
Kendrick LamarFootball fans share a universal language that cuts across many cultures and many personality types. A serious football fan is never alone. We are legion, and football is often the only thing we have in common.
Hunter S. ThompsonI have been influenced in my thinking by both west and east.
Nelson MandelaEveryone is different. Everyone has different teams they’ve played on, coaches they’ve played for.
Tom BradyGood psychology should include all the methodological techniques, without having loyalty to one method, one idea, or one person.
Abraham MaslowI’m half-black, half-white, so I basically put it like this: I can fit in anywhere. That’s why I write so many stories from so many different perspectives, because I’ve seen so many.
J. ColeI will meet my countrymen. I understand only one language: that they are my countrymen, they are my brothers. You may see with whatever colour you want; Modi will not go into that colour.
Narendra ModiApple has given me a platform to spread music. They’re giving us Latinos a chance to shine.
Bad BunnyI feel like my music has become a lot of things. It’s hard to label the evolution, but I like there to be an evolution. I just like to paint with all different kinds of colors.
Taylor SwiftI can’t help the way you was born if you was gay.
Kendrick LamarIt’s always going to be a fight for anyone who isn’t an older white man. I want to fight for anyone who doesn’t have a fight.
Kanye WestAll religions must be tolerated… for every man must get to heaven in his own way.
EpictetusI grew up in a very nice house in Houston, went to private school all my life and I’ve never even been to the ‚hood. Not that there’s anything wrong with the ‚hood.
Beyonce KnowlesWe’re a diverse society, and I think the TV is doing a great job in showing that we’re all human beings, that we can all get along, that we can all be together, and I think that’s a marvelous thing.
Billy GrahamI’m afraid that everything will get homogenized and be the same.
David ByrneWhen you have shot one bird flying you have shot all birds flying. They are all different and they fly in different ways but the sensation is the same and the last one is as good as the first.
Ernest HemingwayWealthy men can’t live in an island that is encircled by poverty. We all breathe the same air. We must give a chance to everyone, at least a basic chance.
Ayrton SennaCreativity has got to start with humanity and when you’re a human being, you feel, you suffer. You’re gay, you’re sick, you’re nervous or whatever.
Marilyn MonroeAre we a nation that educates the world’s best and brightest in our universities, only to send them home to create businesses in countries that compete against us? Or are we a nation that encourages them to stay and create jobs, businesses, and industries right here in America?
Barack ObamaI loved the fact that Obama is multi-racial. I thought that was terrific, as my wife is the same racial make-up.
Clint EastwoodThe diversity of India, of our civilization, is actually a thing of beauty, which is something we are extremely proud of.
Narendra ModiTell me: when God looks at a gay person, does he endorse the existence of this person with love, or reject and condemn this person?… It is necessary to accompany them with mercy.
Pope FrancisWe are all different. There is no such thing as a standard or run-of-the-mill human being, but we share the same human spirit.
Stephen HawkingWe boil at different degrees.
Clint EastwoodMy mother always used to say, ‚Well, if you had been born a little girl growing up in Egypt, you would go to church or go to worship Allah, but surely if those people are worshipping a God, it must be the same God‘ – that’s what she always said. The same God with different names.
Jane GoodallWe view things not only from different sides, but with different eyes; we have no wish to find them alike.
Blaise PascalBeing beautiful is not so fun when you’re in a business with all men.
Lady GagaAmerica was indebted to immigration for her settlement and prosperity. That part of America which had encouraged them most had advanced most rapidly in population, agriculture and the arts.
James MadisonThere are as many opinions as there are experts.
Franklin D. RooseveltThere is no scriptural basis for segregation.
Billy GrahamI love the women’s movement, and I never thought of it as belonging to any particular segment of the population.
Alice WalkerBarack knows the American Dream because he’s lived it, and he wants everyone in this country to have that same opportunity, no matter who we are or where we’re from or what we look like or who we love.
Michelle ObamaThe diversity in the faculties of men, from which the rights of property originate, is not less an insuperable obstacle to an uniformity of interests. The protection of these faculties is the first object of government.
James MadisonWhat I really want to say: That what the world really needs is a real feeling of kinship. Everybody: stars, laborers, Negroes, Jews, Arabs. We are all brothers.
Marilyn MonroeOur diversity is our strength. What a dull and pointless life it would be if everyone was the same.
Angelina JolieIf you want to appeal to everyone, you can’t do a world tour and expect black people to show up at every date – when you’re in Australia, when you’re in Dubai, when you’re in Indonesia.
Kevin HartMen and women aren’t the same. And they won’t be the same. That doesn’t mean that they can’t be treated fairly.
Jordan PetersonAnd I will do everything that I can as long as I am President of the United States to remind the American people that we are one nation under God, and we may call that God different names but we remain one nation.
Barack ObamaHere in America, we don’t give in to our fears. We don’t build up walls to keep people out.
Michelle ObamaIf you are not being bullied all I would say – cause I like to talk about the other side of it as well – is you know, be someone that nurtures, and if there’s someone in your class that maybe doesn’t have a lot of friends, be the person that sits with them in the cafeteria sometimes; be the bigger person.
Lady GagaI think you could ask 10 English people the same question about class and get a very different answer.
J. K. RowlingIt’s absolutely normal that different human beings want to go different ways.
Jurgen KloppIn my research, I’ve interviewed a lot of people who never fit in, who are what you might call ‚different‘: scientists, artists, thinkers. And if you drop down deep into their work and who they are, there is a tremendous amount of self-acceptance.
Brene BrownNow, as a nation, we don’t promise equal outcomes, but we were founded on the idea everybody should have an equal opportunity to succeed. No matter who you are, what you look like, where you come from, you can make it. That’s an essential promise of America. Where you start should not determine where you end up.
Barack ObamaI love that for Barack, there is no such thing as ‚us‘ and ‚them‘ – he doesn’t care whether you’re a Democrat, a Republican, or none of the above… he knows that we all love our country… and he’s always ready to listen to good ideas… he’s always looking for the very best in everyone he meets.
Michelle ObamaIt’s a tragedy, in a way, that Americans are brought up to think that they cannot feel for other people and other beings just because they are different. They think they’re different. It’s very limiting.
Alice WalkerEven in this globalised world, London is still the standard for our times. The city has embraced the world’s diversity and represents the finest in human achievements.
Narendra ModiNobody has ever convinced me that race is real.
Alice WalkerIn all my days of schooling, from preschool all the way up to 12th grade, there was not one white person in my class. Literally zero.

Dolly PartonThe day will come – and it is not far off – when the legacy of Lincoln will finally be fulfilled at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, when a black man or woman will sit in the Oval Office. When that day comes, the most remarkable thing about it will be how naturally it occurs.
George H. W. BushHere’s the thing: every office I’ve run for I was the first to win. First person of color. First woman. First woman of color. Every time.
Kamala HarrisWe don’t need to share the same opinions as others, but we need to be respectful.
Taylor Swift
