Culture Quote by Yuval Noah Harari
““...Money is also the apogee of human tolerance; money is more open-minded than language, state laws, culture codes, religious beliefs, and social habits. Money is the only trust system created by humans that can bridge almost any cultural gap, and that does not discriminate on the basis of religion, gender, race, age, or sexual orientation.””
