In Europe, the big word is tolerance. You tolerate everything.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Human beings tolerate what they understand they have to tolerate.
Tolerance is a virtue that depends upon peace and strength.
Tolerance always has limits - it cannot tolerate what is itself actively intolerant.
Tolerance is forced on people in London.
If it was necessary to tolerate in other people everything that one permits oneself, life would be unbearable.
I have seen great intolerance shown in support of tolerance.
I think tolerance is something everybody needs to be reminded of, especially in a reactionary political world. Well, actually, I should say, a reactionary political climate.
For the Left, tolerance does not mean tolerance. It means first, acceptance. And second, celebration. That is totalitarianism: You not only have to live with what you may differ with, dear citizen, you have to celebrate it or pay a steep price.
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.
Let's be careful when we start comparing American to European tolerance because there isn't necessarily a lot of European tolerance.
