John Hume Quotes

Difference is the essence of humanity. Difference is an accident of birth, and it should therefore never be the source of hatred or conflict. Therein lies a most fundamental principle of peace: respect for diversity Picture Quote #1
We did not seek ideological confrontation Picture Quote #1
The civil rights movement in the United States was about the same thing, about equality of treatment for all sections of the people, and that is precisely what our movement was about Picture Quote #1
In my opinion, what changed the situation eventually - and, of course, it took a lot of time to change it, things like that don’t change in a week or a fortnight - was the new educational system Picture Quote #1
In coming to that agreement, my party had a clear philosophy throughout. In Northern Ireland, we should have institutions that respected the differences of the people and that gave no victory to either side Picture Quote #1

Every child growing up will look to their parents, my mother and my father. My grandmother lived with us. I picked up quite a bit of family lore and history from her, which was interesting Picture Quote #1
I think that’s not a question that one can answer accurately. I read a whole range of books, quite a lot of history at the time, and still do read a lot. I read very widely Picture Quote #1
Difference is of the essence of humanity. Difference is an accident of birth and it should therefore never be the source of hatred or conflict. The answer to difference is to respect it. Therein lies a most fundamental principle of peace: respect for diversity Picture Quote #1
The basis of peace and stability, in any society, has to be the fullest respect for the human rights of all its people Picture Quote #1
Total ghettoization, because they were in charge of public housing, the local council, and they deliberately located people in a ghetto situation in order to ensure that they maintained control Picture Quote #1

The violence had broken out in both sides, but our philosophy as a party was very, very clear Picture Quote #1
Like everybody at that age, I read an awful lot of pulp fiction. But at the same time, I also read quite a bit of history and read that as much for pleasure as part of a curriculum Picture Quote #1
In working class districts, you had several families living together in the one house, and it was very difficult to get a house, because the politicians who controlled housing were doing so in a very discriminatory fashion Picture Quote #1
I never thought in terms of being a leader. I thought very simply in terms of helping people Picture Quote #1
