Quote of the Day

"Cultural pluralism is a radical idea with profound implications. It immunises us against the seductive and all too common tendency to think that our view of the world, religion or system of morality alone is correct, and can rightly be used to judge all others. It thus breeds humility, respect for others, openness to dialogue, and the spirit of self-criticism. It also encourages us to see others not as strangers or a hostile threat but rather as conversational partners who bring us the gifts of self-consciousness and access to their treasures, and whose existence is a necessary precondition of our growth."
