The word 'tolerance' once meant we all have the right to argue rationally for our deepest convictions in the public arena. Now it means those convictions are not even subject to rational debate.

Tolerance is a virtue that depends upon peace and strength.

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.

What is tolerance? It is the consequence of humanity. We are all formed of frailty and error; let us pardon reciprocally each other's folly - that is the first law of nature.

The responsibility of tolerance lies with those who have the wider vision.

Tolerance is giving to every other human being every right that you claim for yourself.

Tolerance it a tremendous virtue, but the immediate neighbors of tolerance are apathy and weakness.

No human trait deserves less tolerance in everyday life, and gets less, than intolerance.
