“Why do you think I make zero mention of the culture I was born and raised in? It's because if I am to build a world where civilized beings would behave civilized and step across cultural bigotry, I must stand as the anomalous specimen of that possibility myself - I must stand as the ultimate global citizen - as a sapiens of earth, not of borders. Hence, I wiped out every last trace of identity imposed on me by the environment. Today I stand as the Himalayas - many cultures will claim exclusive copyright over me, but no single culture is vast enough to contain me.”

Not every christian is a good human,
But every good human is a christian.
Not every muslim is a good human,
But every good human is a muslim.
Not every jew is a good human,
But every good human is a jew.
Not every hindu is a good human,
But every good human is a hindu.
Not every buddhist is a good human,
But every good human is a buddhist.
Not every humanist is a good human,
But every good human is a humanist.
Goodness is universal, vessels may vary.
Some call it water, some agua, some pani.”

“It doesn't matter whether you are muslim, christian, jew or atheist. It doesn't matter whether you are black, white, brown or martian. If you have love in your heart and kindness in your hands, then you are human. But if your existence is anemic of love and kindness, then no matter how human you look, and how many Sundays and Fridays you spend at the church or the mosque, you ain't no human.”
