“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
“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
“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
“It is through being wounded that power grows and can, in the end, become tremendous”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“You don't hear as much about the very many who come back who are seriously wounded and permanently scarred. Our attitude should be: 'Anything you need, you've got it, buddy.”
Margaret Campanelli
“She fought back very hard. That was very obvious from the scene. I saw the wounds to the head that killed her and the rest just looked like a fight that she might have even been winning. That coward needed a weapon to beat her ... It just looked like a crime scene photo I've seen over and over.”
Daniel Horowitz
