Mentality shift

“I think it's easier to see others as simply human beings like yourself, without being frightened/intolerant of them and their differences (religious, cultural, sexual, whatever), when you know you can cripple or kill them before they have a clue what just happened. It enables you to be more sensitive, closer to being able to embrace all of humanity.” (Dale Seago)
