Summary

This quote emphasizes that morality is not determined by one's geographical location or cultural background. Instead, it suggests that morals are shaped by the laws and governing systems of societies. The quote argues that morals are universal and can be objectively categorized as either good or bad, regardless of whether they originate from Africa, Asia, Europe, or any other region. It supposes that morality is not inherently tied to specific cultures or countries, but rather influenced by the legislation and governance prevalent in a society.

Everything has a spirit and it's all connected. If you think about that, if you live your life by it, then you're less likely to cause any hurt. It's like how our bodies go back into the ground when we die, so that connects us to the earth. If you dump trash, you're dumping it on your and my ancestors. Or to bring it down to its simplest level: treat everything and everybody the way you want to be treated, because when you hurt someone, you're only hurting yourself.
