Man is like a pillowcase. The color of one may be red, another blue, another black, but all contain the same cotton.
So it is with man--one is beautiful, one is not; another is holy, a fourth wicked; but the Divine dwells in them all.
Notes:
In this saying, Sri Ramakrishna emphasizes the divinity in all people, without distinction. As we'll see later, this is to be tempered with some discrimination.
