"You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view...until you climb into his skin and walk around in it"
~ Atticus told this to Scout after hearing of her series of misfortunate events at school with Miss Caroline
Too often we try to judge other people, without ever even considering trying to see their side of matters. If people start trying to "climb into someone's skin and walk around in it", we could better understand each other. Then from better understanding, also respect each other's opinions, although we may not necessarily agree with it. With no understanding, in addition, comes the fear and zero tolerance for the unknown. One once said, "Ignorance is the cause of fear; fear is cause of war." This stands true, whether it is war with another country or a war within a community.
