"As people we are now, as never before, in all this together. All of us human beings, wildly different though our circumstances are-young men caged and tormented in Guantanamo Bay, corporate fat cats complacent in capital cities, child soldiers in African conflicts, middle class children of the OECD, skinny people scouring for scraps and obese people stuffed sick, those who see evil and those who see good, those who hate and those who love, fundamentalist and ecumenicals, believers and skeptics-a kaleidoscope of people, culture, languages, faiths and beliefs...We see all these differences, but they are overwhelmed by what we have in common-our global habitat, our miraculous genes, our brains, the mystery of consciousness, our ability to reflect on ourselves and our potential for selfishness and greed to be overturned by generosity and altruism."
