• Whether we are Christians or Muslims or nationalists or agnostics or atheists, we must first learn to forget our differences.

A separation of the races is the only perfect preventive of amalgamation, but as an immediate separation is impossible, the next best thing is to keep them apart where they are not already together. If white and black people never get together in Kansas, they will never mix blood in Kansas...
