Can anything be more ridiculous than that a man has a right to kill me because he lives on the other side of the water, and because his ruler has quarrel with mine, although I have none with him?

I love this quote. Good stuff.
Reminds me a GB Shaw quote about how ethnocenticism shapes our understanding of ourselves and others:
Patriotism is your conviction that this country is superior to all other countries because you were born in it.
I absolutely love that quote!
one of my all-time favorites!
