“Forgiveness sees wisely. It willingly acknowledges what is unjust, harmful, and wrong. It bravely recognizes sufferings of the past, and understands the conditions that brought them about.Forgiveness honors the heart's greatest dignity. Whenever we are lost, it brings us back to the ground of love.Without forgiveness our lives are chained, forced to carry the sufferings of the past and repeat them with no release.” HeartPastSufferingLostOur LivesConditionsHonorDignityReleaseAcknowledgeRepeatsUnjustChained Author:Jack Kornfield
“Men call women faithless, changeable, and though they say it in jealousy of their own ever-threatened sexual honor, there is some truth in it. We can change our life, our being; no matter what our will is, we are changed. As the moon changes yet is one, so we are virgin, wife, mother, grandmother. For all their restlessness, men are who they are; once they put on the man's toga they will not change again; so they make a virtue of that rigidity and resist whatever might soften it and set them free.” MenMatterMightMotherVirtueOur LivesWifeChangedHonorMoonNo Matter WhatGrandmotherThreatenedVirginsRestlessnessRigidityFaithlessMother GrandmotherWife MotherTogas Author:Ursula K.

“God of our life, there are days when the burdens we carry chafe our shoulders and weigh us down; when the road seems dreary and endless, the skies gray and threatening; when our lives have no music in them, and our hearts are lonely, and our souls have lost their courage. Flood the path with light, run our eyes to where the skies are full of promise; tune our hearts to brave music; give us the sense of comradeship with heroes and saints of every age; and so quicken our spirits that we may be able to encourage the souls of all who journey with us on the road of life, to your honor and glory.” GivingHeartMaySoulLightSeemsEyeRunningAgeAbleSpiritLostPathOur LivesJourneySkyHeroHonorPromiseGloryLonelyBraveSaintBurdenEndlessShouldersTunesGrayFloodThreateningDrearyComradeshipYour Honor Author:Saint Augustine

“''Women of the Gallagher Academy, who comes here?" she asked. Just then, every girl at every table (even the newbies) stood and said in unison, "We are the sisters of Gillian." "Why do you come?" my mother asked. "To learn her skills. Honor her sword. And keep her secrets." "To what end do you work?" "To the cause of justice and light." "How long will you strive?"

“Liberty is one of the most precious gifts which heaven has bestowed on man; with it we cannot compare the treasures which the earth contains or the sea conceals; for liberty, as for honor, we can and ought to risk our lives; and, on for the other hand, captivity is the greatest evil that can befall man.” MenHandsEarthEvilHeavenFreedomLibertyOur LivesRiskSeaOughtHonorTreasureCompareCaptivityPrecious Gifts Author:Miguel de Cervantes
