“Everything will not change without real action.”

“sometimes, we still need people who deprecate us, because they're the real motivator in our life, to make us stand up again.”

“Everything changes except human behavior and its consequences.”

“Oh, Lord, forgive three sins that are due to my human limitations.

And most troubling of all was the word accepts. Something one accepts. I was much better at excepting everything than accepting anything, at least anything for certain, for definite. That much I knew. That much I believed.”
