To forgive is to abandon your right to pay back the predator in his own coin, but it is the loss that Liberates.

... freedom translates into having a supply of clean water, having electricity on tap; being able to live in a decent home and have a good job; to be able to send your children to school and to have accessible healthcare. I mean what's the point of having made this transition if the quality of life ... is not enhanced and improved? If not, the vote is useless.

I think that most of us would prefer to be popular than unpopular.

It was spine tingling, actually, when you saw how people kept saying, "Release Nelson Mandela," and meaning really, "Release all of our political prisoners."

We need other human beings in order to be human.

Without forgiveness, there is no future.

Each one of us is not a divine afterthought.
