Always judge a man by the coloring of his heart and only his heart. Truth can be found in his record of actions, not intentions.

~ Suzy Kassem

We won't allow the color of a man's heart to be the color of his skin, the premise of his beliefs, and his self-worth. We won't allow him to be a peanut, therefore we won't allow ourselves to come to live in harmony. (Diary 18)

That was in the Bible too.
