“People have a tendency to either fundamentalize things or philosophize things - those who fundamentalize things, boast about heritage, and those who philosophize things, boast about intellect. I say, neither heritage nor intellect is to be placed at the supreme altar of the human mind, instead what we must place in our mind's altar is people.”
