Kindle Notes & Highlights
“Jacob, love does not prosecute. It seeks neither revenge nor dominance. It does not win at the cost of someone else’s loss. Love only accepts, completely and without reservation.”
“Love’s purpose is not to hide our errors. Love’s purpose is to forgive them. That is very different.”
“You finally saw, and with that vision, you did something of infinite worth. You apologized. And you forgave. These are two of the greatest gifts one man can give another.”
If we do nothing but to remove a rock upon which someone might have tripped, though they may never know we did it, is this not our cause, our reason for life?
“Jacob, all the souls that drift in your sphere of punishment weep for what might have been. True, he feels sorrow, and from sorrow can spring change. But if his sorrow does not become resolve, and his resolve give birth to action, then his lot has not changed.
