There are things that I love – when mankind works together – helps each other – learns from each other – teaches each other – cries for one another – laughs with one another – builds with one another – heals one another – entertains one another – worships with one another. The unity of mankind … there is nothing so glorious.
Gerard de Marigny
When people communicate deceit, it's called politics. When people communicate honesty, it's called art.
