“For you see, the face of destiny or luck or god that gives us war also gives us other kinds of pain:
the loss of health and youth;
the loss of loved ones or of love;
the fear that we will end our days alone.
Some people suffer in peace the way others suffer in war.
The special gift of that suffering, I have learned, is how to be strong while we are weak, how to be brave when we are afraid, how to be wise in the midst of confusion, and how to let go of that which we can no longer hold.
In this way, anger can teach us forgiveness, hate can teach us love, and war can teach us peace.”

“Don’t wonder about right and wrong. Those are weapons as deadly as bombs and bullets. Right is the goodness you carry in your heart—love for your ancestors and your baby and your family and for everything that lives. Wrong is anything that comes between you and that love.”
