Memory feeds a culture, nourishes hope and makes a human, human.

Except that a human being is both the public and the private. We are both, private and public in the same person.

Bite your lips, little brother...Don't cry. Keep your anger, your hate, for another day, for later. The day will come but not now...Wait. Clench your teeth and wait.

There are victories of the soul and spirit. Sometimes, even if you lose, you win.

Love makes everything complicated.
