Quote by Susan Cooper

“And the world will still be imperfect, because men are imperfect. Good men will still be killed by bad, or sometimes by other good men, and there will still be pain and disease and famine, anger and hate. But if you work and care and are watchful, as we have tried to be for you, then in the long run the worse will never, ever, triumph over the better. And the gifts put into some men, that shine as bright as Eirias the sword, shall light the dark corners of life for all the rest, in so brave a world.”

“The habit of hate is spreading like venom in a polarized world, pushing us to pick sides and label everything. We make someone wrong to feel right, truly believing our views are superior. We forget it is collective influences that have shaped our opinions. But hate is hate, no matter whom you hate. I do not wish for that to fester in me and become one of my life accumulations and habits.”
