It’s when mercy is least expected that it’s most potent—strong enough to break the cycle of victimization and victimhood, retribution and suffering.

― Oscar A. Romero, The Violence Of Love

“Treat people as if they were what they ought to be and you help them to become what they are capable of being.”
