Minds differ still more than faces

Nothing to do directly with our conversation but relaying a vignette that does in some ways reflect that conversation.

 

I am just back from an all day Boy Scout Merit Badge clinic conducted in an inner city location. You can't imagine greater heterogeneity. By race, creed, culture, class, community, country of origin. All working together towards a common end. Wonderful capstone to our discussion and the future brought forward.

 

In one of the classrooms in which I was conducting a class, in the center of the room, there was posted a quotation of Voltaire from his Philosophical Dictionary, which seemed to sum up a month's worth of conversation.

 

"Minds differ still more than faces."
