E. M. Forster Quotes About Tolerance

Quotes about: Tolerance

• The fact is we can only love what we know personally. And we cannot know much. In public affairs, in the rebuilding of civilization, something less dramatic and emotional is needed, namely tolerance.

  E. M. Forster

  Emotional, Civilization, Tolerance

• Tolerance is a very dull virtue. It is boring. Unlike love, it has always had a bad press. It is negative. It merely means putting up with people, being able to stand things.

  E. M. Forster

  Love, Mean, People

  E.M. Forster (1951). “Two Cheers for Democracy”

• Tolerance is just a makeshift, suitable for an overcrowded and overheated planet. It carries on when love gives out, and love generally gives out as soon as we move away from our home and our friends.

  E. M. Forster

  Moving, Home, Giving
