Quote by Akbar S. Ahmed

“If we do not take this road of dialogue and understanding then I fear for the next generation. There are enough people preaching hatred, which encourages violence. We are living in times when technology, biology and chemistry have created the possibility of killing in large numbers. And, unfortunately, the cruelty and killing are often justified through a distorted interpretation of religion.”

They all said: 'Try to live together peacefully.' BAM! Right in the f--in head! Aparently we're not ready for that!”
