“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.
