Interesting quote from a television show in Australia:
"...and basically, as people, we have this tendency, if someone does something very nice to us, it is really, really nice and it informs how we think and feel and behave. But, if they do something negative to us, we are absolutely on the lookout to remember that and let that guide what we do from now on. And we also have a cognitive bias where as if someone looks different, we hold onto and remember that negative information so much more."

"When someone's from a different group, we take their behavior as diagnostic of what their entire group does. That’s a very normal natural cognitive thing. We use it as a shortcut to guide us to how we should feel about any group. But the point is, as people, we are on the lookout for negative information to tell us how to behave and so we let the negatives guide us far more." - DR FIONA K. BARLOW, Social Psychologist
