“You don't have to agree with everything others believe, in order to realize they are human. My teacher (GC), in his childish naivety, used to believe a lot of things that are sheer nonsense, but I still love him. When you love, you accept, when you lack love, you judge. Besides, he is the one who set me on fire for the world.
You see, disagreement and discrimination are two different things. And we gotta focus on eliminating discrimination, not disagreement. We gotta focus on being human, not on being superior to each other. Somos todos idiotas - we are all idiots. The sooner we realize this, the sooner we can behave wise.”

“Why was unconditional love given to some, but not all? Why would my mother only love me, and why did society only accept me, under the condition that I agreed to pretend to be someone I wasn’t?
Why was acceptance offered to some, but not all?
And who had decided all these rules, anyway?”
