There was an ongoing debate about truth and culture in my office. I, on the other hand, was receiving a challenge from a junior.
"A race that openly looks down on other races has no future. Those foolish long ears are the most obvious example! If you only regard the the younger and new races as savages, you have closed off the gate for advancement."
"Yes, well said! Keeping the old ways of thinking and closing up one's mind will only lead to mental rigidity, and one will, eventually, be left behind times."
"That is why, we should be adept at learning the cultures of other races, perhaps today, they will be looked upon as wannabes, uneducated, uncultured, wild and unruly, but who knows, they may be looked upon by future generations as pioneers! Any artist who is more advanced than his era, has always, in the beginning, not been accepted in his own era."
