Excerpt from [NPR](https://www.npr.org/2019/04/01/708127456/love-your-enemies-and-maaaybe-you-ll-get-them-to-agree-with-you) -- "There's a wonderful body of literature these days led by [Jonathan Haidt](https://www.stern.nyu.edu/faculty/bio/jonathan-haidt) who teaches at New York University about 'moral foundations.' What he finds is that everybody in society basically shares two moral foundations: We all care about compassion, and we all care about fairness. We don't define those things in the same way, but we care about those things."
