one race QUOTES

1 " If all men are made in God's reflection, then why do some people continue to acknowledge only what is in their part of the mirror? If every man was created equal and in the image of God, then how can any man claim that one race is better than another? "

― , Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

2 " We all may be living in different countries, geographical areas, and time zones but one thing which unites us all is that we all belong to one race which is humanity! "

― Avijeet Das

3 " The word we. We are not one people but many different people. How can one person speak for this great, beautiful race--which is not one race but many, with a million desires and hopes and wished for ourselves and our children? "

― Colson Whitehead , The Underground Railroad

4 " It is not enough to live together in peace, with one race on its knees. "

― Daniel H. Wilson , Robopocalypse (Robopocalypse, #1)

5 " As a citizen of the world, I will not confine myself within the gates of one nation or religion. I will not identify with only one species, sex, class or race; for I am a complete being, and that means that I embrace all of humanity, all of nature, every star and universe within the greater universe as a part of me. If we were all created in the image of God, and his love is unconditional, then why can't we love all living things with the same eyes as God? How can anybody say that one race is more superior than another, when we were all created in God's reflection? "

6 " One by one, I'll face the tasks before me and complete them as best I can. Focusing on each stride forward, but at the same time taking a long-range view, scanning the scenery as far ahead as I can. I am, after all, a long distance runner.

My time, the rank I attain, my outward appearance - all of these are secondary. For a runner like me, what's really important is reaching the goal I set myself, under my own power. I give it everything I have, endure what needs enduring, and am able, in my own way, to be satisfied. From out of the failures and joys I always try to come away having grasped a concrete lesson. (It's got to be concrete, no matter how small it is.) And I hope that, over time, as one race follows another, in the end I'll reach a place I'm content with. Or maybe just catch a glimpse of it. "

― Haruki Murakami , What I Talk About When I Talk About Running

7 " If all men are made in God's reflection, then why do some people continue to acknowledge only what is in their part of the mirror? If every man was truly created equal, and in the image of God, then how can any man claim that one race is better than another, or that one nation is less deserving than another? "

8 " All this because one race did not have the decency to be ashamed of dealing in human flesh. "

― Whitney Otto , How to Make an American Quilt

9 " The Olympic Spirit is neither the property of one race nor of one age. "
