"The world saw me as colored, but I didn't spend my life looking at myself. I spent my life looking at other people. I saw myself as the people aroun… - Trevor Noah

We live in a world where we don’t see the ramifications of what we do to others because we don’t live with them. It would be a whole lot harder for an investment banker to rip off people with subprime mortgages if he actually had to live with the people he was ripping off.
