“The world is rational and creative. It's a wonderful mystery for our minds to discover and celebrate . God's everywhere and we are all different. That's the beauty of it-the sheer diversity. What a tapestry to enjoy.”

“Ask any white man about a Chinaman, and he’ll tell you he’s a liar and deceitful. Well, so’s a child until you teach it the elements of right and wrong. The trouble is, there isn’t a right or wrong in this culture. There’s only harmony and the golden mean. We think lying’s a sin. The Chinaman thinks it bad-mannered to offend you by telling you something you don’t want to hear. They don’t have the absolutes we have. You say, show them the Truth. They have a complex society developed over thousands of years where truth is whatever you want it to be. Appearance not substance is what counts.”
