“If you love a person,
you accept the total person.
With all the defects.
Because those defects are a part of the person.

Never try to change a person you love,
because the very effort to change says that you love half,
and the other half of the person is not accepted .

When you love,
you simply love.”
― Osho

“What about evil, you may ask? Aren’t some people just evil, just monsters, and aren’t such people just unforgivable? I do believe there are monstrous and evil acts, but I do not believe those who commit such acts are monsters or evil. To relegate someone to the level of monster is to deny that person’s ability to change and to take away that person’s accountability for his or her actions and behavior.”
― Desmond Tutu, The Book of Forgiving: The Fourfold Path for Healing Ourselves and Our World
