Quote by Barbara O'Connor

“Bertha knelt in front of me and took both my hands in hers and said, “Your mama loves you very much, Charlie. But sometimes, she just loses her way.” Loses her way? I’d be happy to draw her a map to show her the way back to being my mama again.”

“It is the natural tendency of the ignorant to believe what is not true. In order to overcome that tendency it is not sufficient to exhibit the true; it is also necessary to expose and denounce the false. To admit that the false has any standing in court, that it ought to be handled gently because millions of morons cherish it and thousands of quacks make their livings propagating it—to admit this, as the more fatuous of the reconcilers of science and religion inevitably do, is to abandon a just cause to its enemies, cravenly and without excuse.”

“Life is severe and coping is harder for some than others. We can make the journey trickier or easier, smoothing the path with grace or complicating it with more obstacles. This person is here to stay for the foreseeable future or forever, so he is a necessary member of your tribe. You can exercise compassion without enabling misconduct.”

“இயற்கையின் பெருமையே மானுடத்திற்கான அதன் தியாகம்தான். இயற்கையும் மனிதனும் வேறுவேறன்று. இயற்கையின் சிறுபிரதிதான் மனிதன்; மனிதனின் பெரும்பிரதிதான் இயற்கை. மனித வேர்களின் கீழே கண்ணுக்குத் தெரிந்தும் தெரியாமலும் கசியும் கருணைதான் இயற்கை.”
