Bigotry is the sacred disease, and self-conceit tells lies.

Heraclitus

Bigotry is the disease of ignorance.

Thomas Jefferson

From the animist point of view, humans belong in a sacred place because they themselves are sacred. Not sacred in a special way, not more sacred than anything else, but merely as sacred as anything else -- as sacred as bison or salmon or crows or crickets or bears or sunflowers.

Daniel Quinn

As we address extreme weather and pandemic disease, we will understand and overcome racism and bigotry so we can safely and together do space.

Victor J. Glover

I am about to discuss the disease called 'sacred'. It is not, in my opinion, any more divine or more sacred that other diseases, but has a natural cause, and its supposed divine origin is due to men's inexperience, and to their wonder at its peculiar character.

Hippocrates

Thinking is a sacred disease and sight is deceptive.

Heraclitus

Bigotry is the disease of ignorance, of morbid minds; enthusiasm of the free and buoyant. Education and free discussion are the antidotes of both.

Thomas Jefferson

There is a bigotry rampant in America, against evangelicals. It is the last respectable bigotry.

Michael Novak

There's one form of bigotry that is still acceptable in America - that's the bigotry against the successful.

Phil Gramm

It is not bigotry to be certain we are right; but it is bigotry to be unable to imagine how we might possibly have gone wrong.

Gilbert K. Chesterton

The bigotry of the nonbeliever is for me nearly as funny as the bigotry of the believer.

Albert Einstein

I said I reject any form of bigotry, bigotry of all kinds.

Steve Scalise

It is nonsense for the Government to allow any loopholes for religious homophobia. Bigotry is bigotry whether it's dressed up in the language of faith or not.

Giles Fraser

People still think of AIDS as a shame-based disease, it's a sexually transmitted disease, and you're either gay or you're a prostitute or an intravenous drug user. And so a lot of people are still very bigoted about this disease. It's such a treatable disease. It's so - the end is in sight for this disease, medically.

Elton John

Many physical illnesses are associated with depression and anxiety, including heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, Parkinson's disease, stroke, kidney disease, lung disease, dementia and cancer.

Liz Miller

Why do we cling to bigotry? Because bigotry, plainly, is convenient. It is a near-effortless way to both elevate one's stature and make a pity grab in this culture of victims that we have become.

John Ridley
