“Forgiveness is truly the grace by which we enable another person to get up, and get up with dignity, to begin anew. To not forgive leads to bitterness and hatred.

― Desmond Tutu, The Book of Forgiving: The Fourfold Path for Healing Ourselves and Our World

“Men tell stories. Women get on with it. For us it was a shadow war. There were no parades for us when it was over, no medals or mentions in history books. We did what we had to during the war, and when it was over, we picked up the pieces and started our lives over.”
― Kristin Hannah, The Nightingale

“I've found that there is always some beauty left -- in nature, sunshine, freedom, in yourself; these can all help you.”
