“You can be a follower of Muhammad or Jesus or Buddha or whomever. Always, they said that the most essential factor is to love your neighbor. And to love you.”

Meaning

This reads as a reminder that religious labels matter less than the ethical core they point toward. It can be taken to mean that compassion is the common thread, and that love is measured in how you treat other people and yourself. It lands in everyday conflict, when belief starts to divide people and the simpler demand to care gets lost.
