Acquaintance softens prejudice. - Aesop
All prejudices are obstinate, like diseases of chronic tenacity, and require radical cures. - Norman MacDonald
I happen to think that the singular evil of our time is prejudice. It is from this evil that all other evils grow and multiply. - Rod Sterling
I have no race prejudice. I think I have no colour prejudices or caste prejudices nor creed prejudices. Indeed, I know it. I can stand any society. All that I care to know is that a man is a human being – that is enough for me; he can’t be any worse. - Mark Twain
It is harder to crack a prejudice than an atom. - Albert Einstein
Let us all hope that the dark clouds of racial prejudice will soon pass away and the deep fog of misunderstanding will be lifted from our fear-drenched communities, and in some not too distant tomorrow the radiant stars of love and brotherhood will shine over our great nation with all their scintillating beauty. - Martin Luther King, Jr
Men often prove the violence of their own prejudices, even by the violence with which they attack the prejudices of other people. - Fluke Greville
Men's prejudices rest upon their character for the time being and cannot be overcome, as being part and parcel of themselves. Neither evidence nor common sense nor reason has the slightest influence upon them. - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Most people don’t think. They just rearrange their prejudices. - Robert Anthony
Prejudice comes from being in the dark; sunlight disinfects it. - Muhammad Ali
Prejudice is not bigotry or superstition, although prejudice sometimes may degenerate into these. Prejudice is pre-judgment, the answer with which intuition and ancestral consensus of opinion supply a man when he lacks either time or knowledge to arrive at a decision predicated upon pure reason. - Russell Kirk
Prejudice is the glass through which most things are seen and judged. - Edward Counsel
Prejudices, it is well known, are most difficult to eradicate from the heart whose soil has never been loosened or fertilised by education: they grow there, firm as weeds among stones. - Charlotte Bronte
The bird that would soar above the level plain of tradition and prejudice must have strong wings. - Kate Chopin
The law understands the implacable nature of prejudice. It acknowledges that prejudiced judges ought not sit on a given case, although most prejudiced judges are too prejudiced to recognize or admit their prejudice and to remove themselves. To get a prejudiced judge off a case is like prying a tooth out of a rabid gorilla. - Gerry L. Spence
We talk of early prejudices, of the prejudices of religion, of position, of education; but in truth we only mean the prejudices of others. It is by the observation of trivial matters that the wise learn the influence of prejudice over their own minds at all times, and the wonderfully moulding power which those minds possess in making all things around conform to the idea of the moment. Let a man but note how often he has seen likenesses where no resemblance exists; admired ordinary pictures, because he thought they were from the hands of celebrated masters; delighted in the commonplace observations of those who had gained a reputation for wisdom; laughed where no wit was; and he will learn with humility to make allowance for the effect of prejudice in others. - Arthur Helps
When any prevailing prejudice is attacked, the wise will consider, and leave the narrow-minded to rail with thoughtless vehemence at innovation. - Mary Wollstonecraft
You deny that man is really so prejudiced as I suppose him; talk to him then of some foreign country, ask him what religion he is of. - Fulke Greville
