"I am the entire human race compacted together. I have found that there is no ingredient of the race which I do not possess in either a small way or a large way."

I love it! It is so true, we all have a bit of everyone inside of us. This is especially true for those who are able to open their eyes and see others with room in their hearts for all cultures, races, religions, and etc. We all have a certain amount of the negative emotions and a certain amount of the positive emotions. It is all how to treat it and how you control your heart and mind. If you let negative things into your head, it's more likely that you will be a negative person, but if you take those negative thoughts and emotions and turn them into positives you will become not only a wiser person but also a better, more positive person for it all. We each have things that make us mad, and things make us happy. I think only if you close yourself in, is there a place where you may not have every ingredient of the human race inside you.

Very well put, Leona, and I agree. This quote actually had me thinking about Lara's song, "Les Homericains."
