“It is through being wounded that power grows and can, in the end, become tremendous”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“It has been said, 'time heals all wounds.' I do not agree. The wounds remain. In time, the mind, protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessens, but it is never gone.”
Rose F. Kennedy
“The optimist already sees the scar over the wound; the pessimist still sees the wound underneath the scar”
Ernst Schroder
“He jests at scars that never felt a wound”
William Shakespeare
“There is something beautiful about all scars of whatever nature. A scar means the hurt is over, the wound is closed and healed, done with.”
Harry Crews
“I don't know if scars heal, but I know wounds heal, that's for sure.”
Tommy Polo
“Forgiveness does not mean forgetting. Forgiveness does not mean that the scars stopped hurting. They'll always be there, just like the wound Jesus showed to Thomas after the resurrection.”
