Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness..

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.”
 

- Mark Twain, The Innocents Abroad/Roughing It 

Many modern humans now have tv and internet so we don't even have to travel to gain a world perspective..but people still insist on remaining ignorant and bigoted. There's just no excuse anymore.
