“Because photos are testimony that someone did live. A reminder of past we may have loved or hated. A piece of our lives.”
“YOU MUST NOT HATE BECAUSE SOMEONE HATES, LET YOUR LOVE OVERSHADOW THEIR HATE SO THAT THEY MAY LOVE BECAUSE YOU LOVE.”
“Usually, if we hate, it is the shadow of the person that we hate, rather than the substance. We may hate a person because he reminds us of someone we feared and disliked when younger; or because we see in him some gross caricature of what we find repugnant in ourself; or because he symbolizes an attitude that seems to threaten us.”
“We may be living past and future lives at the same time we are living this one.”
“We can't live our lives obsessing about the past or mourning the future. We have a responsibility to ourselves and to each other to live every moment of our lives the best we can.”
“You did what was right for those who agreed with you, and that is all in the past. We are talking about our future. Oliver, we cannot live as we did.”
