"...we have to believe no matter what, in our kids, in who they are, where they come from, and love them, period. That's it, there's no asterisk, no side note, no subtext, that's it. And if you can't do that, if you can't love the kid in front of you, no matter religion, no matter race, no matter ethnicity, nationality, immigration status - if you can't love the kid in front of you, without them having to do anything or ever speak a word, then this isn't the field for you."
