About this Quote

This quote by Abdus Salam is referring to the stipulation made by Alfred Nobel in his will. Nobel was a Swedish chemist, engineer, innovator, and armaments producer who is best understood for the creation of dynamite and for establishing the Nobel Prize. In his will, Nobel specified that no distinction of race or colour must identify who got his generosity. This was a progressive and forward-thinking declaration for the time, as it was a direct challenge to the bigotry and discrimination that prevailed in lots of societies. Nobel's specification was an effective statement of his belief in the equality of all people, regardless of their race or colour. This quote functions as a tip of the value of standing up for what is ideal and combating against discrimination and prejudice. It is a reminder that we need to strive to create a world where everyone is dealt with similarly and relatively, regardless of their race or colour.
