No virtuous act is quite as virtuous from the standpoint of our friend or foe as it is from our standpoint. Therefore we must be saved by the final form of love which is forgiveness.”

The unpredictable forces of instability brought about by a combination of motion, change, and flux propels the miraculous dynamism of existence.”
