Gleaning Facebook: Nothing Human Is Foreign To Us

 

"'Every one of us bears within him the possibility of all passions, all destinies of life in all its manifold forms. Nothing human is foreign to us." -Edward G. Robinson

I found this very basic piece of acting theory today. Every decent actor knows this. It might greatly reduce xenophobia and other biases if more folks would fully realize this truth.
Though I am, it follows, as capable of hatred and prejudice and fear as anyone else, at my most self-aware, even in the case of evil men pity is more appropriate than hate.

Sam Burnham
And maybe patience to see what actually happens as opposed to just rhetoric
