Prejudice is a learned trait. You're not born prejudiced; you're taught it.

Prejudices are the chains forged by ignorance to keep men apart.

There is no prejudice so strong as that which arises from a fancied exemption from all prejudice.

Prejudice is a burden that confuses the past, threatens the future and renders the present inaccessible.

A prejudice, unlike a simple misconception, is actively resistant to all evidence that would unseat it.

Prejudice is like a hair across your cheek. You can't see it, you can't find it with your fingers, but you keep brushing at it because the feel of it is irritating.

Prejudices are what fools use for reason.

Prejudice of any kind implies that you are identified with the thinking mind. It means you don't see the other human being anymore, but only your own concept of that human being. To reduce the aliveness of another human being to a concept is already a form of violence.

I think prejudice has gotten to a point where a lot of people hold biases in their mind and don't even realize that they're doing it, because it's deeply ingrained in the fabric of what it means to be an American.

I am not prejudiced in any way.
