From the song 'Brave' by Sara Bareilles:

You can be amazing,
You can turn a phrase into a weapon or a drug,
You can be the outcast,
Or be the backlash of somebody’s lack of love,
Or you can start speaking up.

Nothing’s gonna hurt you the way that words do
When they settle 'neath your skin,
Kept on the inside and no sunlight
Sometimes a shadow wins,
But I wonder what would happen if you....

Say what you wanna say
And let the words fall out,
Honestly I wanna see you be brave
With what you want to say,
And let the words fall out
Honestly I wanna see you be brave.

"Less well known is the paradox of tolerance: Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them. — In this formulation, I do not imply, for instance, that we should always suppress the utterance of intolerant philosophies; as long as we can counter them by rational argument and keep them in check by public opinion, suppression would certainly be unwise. But we should claim the right to suppress them if necessary even by force; for it may easily turn out that they are not prepared to meet us on the level of rational argument, but begin by denouncing all argument; they may forbid their followers to listen to rational argument, because it is deceptive, and teach them to answer arguments by the use of their fists or pistols. We should therefore claim, in the name of tolerance, the right not to tolerate the intolerant. We should claim that any movement preaching intolerance places itself outside the law, and we should consider incitement to intolerance and persecution as criminal, in the same way as we should consider incitement to murder, or to kidnapping, or to the revival of the slave trade, as criminal."
― Karl Popper, The Open Society and Its Enemies

Tolerance should have limits. Do not tolerate evil or the intolerant.

"Man is always inclined to be intolerant towards the thing, or person, he hasn't taken the time adequately to understand."
