Tolerance â The willingness to respect or accept the customs, beliefs, or opinions of others.
Respecting and accepting others is a trait that I see day in and day out at J. H. House. In honor of your spirit of tolerance toward others, I thought it would be fun to share some quotes on tolerance. Boys and girls, please read and enjoy these quotes and think about how we are tolerant of others. Then share your thoughts in the comments section of this weblog! Why I bet one of you could come up with a quote that might even be passed on to future generations! Give it a try! Here are the quotes on tolerance:
