“Mankind hates what it does not understand and makes no effort to change its ways. Malice upon the man who speaks a different tongue, whose flesh is not a matching shade. Pity upon your women whose simple existence is an excuse to incur your wrath. Mercy for your children whose innocence will always be corrupted, either by time or by the hands of those they were taught to trust—”
