Eva Figes
Image
See how elastic our prejudices grow when once love comes to bend them.
Herman Melville
Image
The academic world is one of the few places where prejudice is supposed to be totally banned, and we're politically correct on everything, but it's still a place where you can attack religion out of utter, complete, bottomless ignorance and not be considered to have done anything wrong.
Robert Neelly Bellah

Image
There's a tendency to treat anyone with a physical disability as inspiring. I call it a pedestal of prejudice, in that you're lifting people up to dismiss them. My whole thing is bringing us down to everyone else's level and saying we're all the same. The struggle is the same.
Zach Anner

Prejudice, like the spider, makes everywhere its home. It has neither taste nor choice of place, and all that it requires is room. If the one prepares her food by poisoning it to her palate and her use, the other does the same. Prejudice may be denominated the spider of the mind.
Thomas Paine
Image
To be sure an European woman would blush to her fingers' ends at the very idea of appearing publicly stark naked but education and prejudice are everything, since it is an axiom, that where there is no feeling of self-reproach, there can assuredly be no shame.
John Gabriel Stedman
Image
Judge me all you want, just keep the verdict to yourself.

I think people are as individual as snowflakes, they kinda look alike but no two are the exactly the same, and all classification is the root of prejudice.
Craig Ferguson

What generally passes for 'thought' among the majority of mankind is the time one takes out to rearrange one's prejudices.
Clare Boothe Luce
Image
The simplest principles become difficult of practice, when habits, formed in error, have been fixed by time, and the simplest truths hard to receive when prejudice has warped the mind.
Frances Wright
Image
I paint according to the moment and the theme. I don't have any prejudice. Life concerns me.
Ralph Allen

No culture can live if it attempts to be exclusive.
Mahatma Gandhi
Image
It is an old trick. The playgoer who does not like dirty plays is denounced as a prude the music-lover who resents cacophony is told he is a pedant and in all these matters the final crushing blow administered to the man of discrimination is the ascription to him of a hidebound prejudice against things that are new because they are new.
Royal Cortissoz
Image
The nature of music is mysterious and so much so that it generates strong emotions within us. It moves along passages that reach the most intimate areas of our psyche without being tried by prejudices or influences of any kind.
Andrea Bocelli
Image
Color had been made the mark of enslavement and was taken to be also the mark of inferiority for prejudice does not reason, or it would not be prejudice... If prejudice could reason, it would dispel itself.
William Pickens
Image
When I was younger, I definitely did face anti-ginger prejudice. As a child, all teasing hurts, whether it's because you're fat or a different race or have red hair. I had enough comments from a couple of people to make it a sore point.
Lily Cole
Image
I have studied the art of the masters and the art of the moderns, avoiding any preconceived system and without prejudice. I have no more wanted to imitate the former than to copy the latter nor have I thought of achieving the idle aim of art for art's sake.
Gustave Courbet
Image
And you're not the kind of girl I want. Surely he couldn't mean the fact that I was Mexican. From what I knew of Hardy, there wasn't a bit of prejudice in him. He never used racist words, never looked down on someone for things they couldn't help. What kind do you want? I asked with difficulty. Someone I can leave without looking back.
Lisa Kleypas
Image
A Lesbian who consents to guilt for her sexual preference is her own worst oppressor. She accepts and internalizes prejudices and uses them against herself.
