“It is not enough to say you are sorry. You must utterly own the terrible thing you have done. You must cast no blame on the one you have injured. Rather, accept every molecule of the responsibility, even if reason and self-preservation scream against it. Then, and only then, will the words 'I am sorry' have meaning.”

“If one mouse is a spark...then ten thousand are a conflagration.”

“Because there is no nation so powerful it cannot be wounded, nor a people so small they cannot offer mighty comfort.”
