Out of the mouths of babes

Ruby Bridges - the first black child to attend an all-white elementary school in Louisiana during the 20th century. 
Dad was talking to you about prejudice against hispanics, blacks, and girls who like girls or boys who like boys. They were dumbfounded that people did that and asked why would anyone would think it was okay to exclude or bully someone for any such reasons.
Jeremy: "Some of them feel that way because they think it's what God wants."
Lucy: "That must be Ares [the Greek god of war] or Eris [the Greek goddess of discord] and they shouldn't be listening to those gods anyways!"
You're amazing. Humanity isn't so awful either. We sure have come a long way in 50 years. I really hope things keep getting better and better.
