[ Also see Broad-mindedness Disinterestedness Forbearance Intolerance Magnanimity Neutrality Tolerance ]

Whenever we cease to hate, to despite, and to persecute those who think differently from ourselves, whenever we look on them calmly, we find among them men of pure hearts and unbiased judgments, who, reasoning on the same data with ourselves, have arrived at different conclusion on the subject of the spiritual world.
      - Jean Charles Sismondi

Be thankful that your lot has fallen on times when, though there may be many evil tongues and exasperated spirits, there are none who have fire and fagot at command.
      - Robert Southey

Let us all resolve, first, to attain the grace of silence; second, to deem all fault-finding that does no good a sin, and to resolve, when we are ourselves happy, not to poison the atmosphere for our neighbors by calling upon them to remark every painful and disagreeable feature in their daily life, third, to practice the grace and virtue of praise.
      - Harriet Elizabeth Beecher Stowe

Let us be very gentle with our neighbors' failings, and forgive our friends their debts as we hope ourselves to be forgiven.
      - William Makepeace Thackeray

Let us people who are so uncommonly clever and learned have a great tenderness and pity for the poor folks who are not endowed with the prodigious talents which we have.
      - William Makepeace Thackeray

The moderation and toleration of the priests of any sect are in an inverse ratio to its authority and power.
      - Isidore van Cleef

Tolerance does not mark the progress of a religion. It is the fatal sign of its decline.
      - Isidore van Cleef

Let those who celebrate by name, by waxlight at noonday, tolerate such as are content with the light of the sun.
      - Voltaire (Francois Marie Arouet Voltaire)
