If we cannot now end our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity.

The only way we are going to get diversity is if the demographics of the decision-makers change... The odd-token bone thrown is not going to do it. Don't pat yourself on the back because you made that black drama; that's not diversity. It's got to be baked into the foundation of where the ideas flow from.

As I grow older, the idea takes increasing hold in me that we've misunderstood our own delicacy and diversity as human beings.

It's really important to share the idea that being different might feel like a problem at the time, but ultimately diversity is a strength.

For as long as the power of America's diversity is diminished by acts of discrimination and violence against people just because they are black, Hispanic, Asian, Jewish, Muslim or gay, we still must overcome.

Diversity really means becoming complete as human beings - all of us. We learn from each other. If you're missing on that stage, we learn less. We all need to be on that stage.

What we should celebrate more than diversity is what we do with it. How do we bring everyone in the tent and create something together? In a twenty-first century way that activates our true potential, we all need to become sworn-again.

Diversity is about all of us, and about us having to figure out how to walk through this world together.

I think diversity is a challenge everywhere.

Allow the diversity to exist. There is nothing wrong with it. Hell, we put up with the religious right-we can put up with transgendered human beings.
