Values Quotes – Frederick Buechner on Tolerance

Today’s quote is from Frederick Buechner, an ordained Presbyterian minister and author of over 30 books, including Speak What We Feel: Not What We Ought to Say.

As a differentiating value, Tolerance means the capacity for endurance; or allowing for a permissible difference.

If you want to make a difference in the lives of others, embrace the value of tolerance. But avoid the trap of indifference.  Be passionate about what you believe!
