Daho Djerbal
“Humor is tragedy plus time”
Mark Twain
“We are used to speculation and this is not at all true!”
Dr. Lawrence Gonzi
“Reconciliation is essential. This trial can either divide or heal. And unless it is seen as absolutely fair, and as absolutely fair in fact, it will irreconcilably divide the people of Iraq.”
Ramsey Clark
“In a quarrel, leave room for reconciliation”
Russian Proverb
“Reconciliation should be accompanied by justice, otherwise it will not last. While we all hope for peace it shouldn't be peace at any cost but peace based on principle, on justice.”
Corazon Aquino
“It's an appropriate thing to recognize. I guess the words I would use [are] remembrance and reconciliation. Reconciliation is a tenet of all the faiths and it brings people together and allows for forgiveness. You can't have reconciliation without remembrance.”
Chuck Clay
