Chapter 15 — Contact
Within the same species, with the same blood, the same capacity to love and to suffer, you still find reasons to hate one another. Until you learn to see the being before the costume, the door to the rest of the cosmos will stay closed.
Within the same planet, within the same species, with the same biology, the same blood, the same capacity to love and to suffer — you still find reasons to hate one another over race, over skin color, over place of birth.
You still treat each other as superior and inferior based on differences that don't matter.
If you still can't see each other as equals within your own species, what would happen in the presence of something entirely different?
