“Only the weak blame their past for the faults they find in their present; the strong acknowledge the effects of their past and then move on from it. We are all free to choose whether we will be weak or strong.”
“We are only as strong as we are united, as weak as we are divided.”
“We want God to be strong, so that we can be weak. But He wants to be weak so that we can be strong.”
“We pretend to be strong because we are weak.”
“The past does not only draw us back to the past. There are certain memories of the past that have strong steel springs and, when we who live in the present touch them, they are suddenly stretched taut and then they propel us into the future.”
“Only the weak are cruel. Gentleness can only be expected from the strong.”
