We are not likely to improve our own condition or help humanity very much until we come to the sympathetic understanding that human nature is about the same everywhere, that it is rather evenly distributed over the surface of the earth, and that we are all united in a common brotherhood.
Calvin Coolidge
Much of the vitality in a friendship lies in the honoring of differences, not simply in the enjoyment of similarities.
James Fredericks
Tolerance is the first principle of community; it is the spirit which conserves the best that all men think. No loss by flood and lightning, no destruction of cities and temples by the hostile forces of nature has deprived man of so many noble lives and impulses as those which his intolerance has destroyed.
Helen Keller
Every man should keep a fair-sized cemetery in which to bury the faults of his friends.
Henry Ward Beecher
Endeavor to be always patient of the faults and imperfections of others for thou has many faults and imperfections of thine own that require forbearance. If thou are not able to make thyself that which thou wishest, how canst thou expect to mold another in conformity to thy will?
Thomas a Kempis
Be tolerant with others and strict with yourself.
Marcus Aurelius

The only thing that isn't worthless: to live this life out truthfully and rightly. And be patient with those who don't.
Marcus Aurelius
This is the source.
It's silly to try to escape other people's faults. They are inescapable. Just try to escape your own.
Marcus Aurelius
This is the source.
One of the greatest disasters of our time is our universal acceptance of the word "tolerance" as a great virtue.
