More quotes by Aga Khan IV

We cannot make the world safe for democracy unless we also make the world safe for diversity.

Pluralism is no longer simply an asset or a prerequisite for progress and development, it is vital to our existence.

Tolerance, openness and understanding towards other peoples' cultures, social structures, values and faiths are now essential to the very survival of an interdependent world.

Pluralist societies are not accidents of history. They are a product of enlightened education and continuous investment by governments and all of civil society in recognizing and celebrating the diversity of the world’s peoples.

If our animosities are born out of fear, then confident generosity is born out of hope.
