Little Sister MagdeleineLook inside yourselves. Every heart holds some hidden, secret racism and its roots go very deep. You do not admit it to yourself, but you always look at your neighbour with feelings of your own superiority. The proof of it is that you pass judgements. You wouldn’t judge if you thought of yourself as being like the other person or as a bit worse than the other.
Little Sister Magdeleine (1898–1989)
