Many promising reconciliations have broken down because while both parties come prepared to forgive, neither party come prepared to be forgiven.

If the world would apologize, I might consider a reconciliation.

In the last twelve years, we have come some distance towards reconciliation and the breaking down of disadvantage. Let us take encouragement from what has been achieved and set our minds and hearts to end the remaining roadblocks.

Even during the worst hardships, when the other things in our lives seem to fall apart, we can still find peace in the eternal love of God.

After a crisis we tell ourselves we understand why it happened and maintain the illusion that the world is understandable. In fact, we should accept the world is incomprehensible much of the time.

Seeing the world differently is one of the toughest incompatibilities to reconcile in a relationship.

It seems as if life and hope must cease together.

Let us embrace, and from this very moment vow an eternal misery together.

Any time there is 'un-forgiveness' between people who love each other, there is suffering. Any time people face challenges that they really don't understand... there is suffering.

There cannot be enduring peace, prosperity, equality and brotherhood in this world if our aims are so separate and divergent, if we do not accept that in the end we are people, all alike, sharing the Earth among ourselves and also with other sentient beings, all of whom have an equal role and stake in the state of this planet and its players.
