“We must stand up for the right of our neighbor who is suffering from injustice. We must defend them all the more vigorously because we see Jesus present in them.

Charles de Foucauld

“Put aside your hatred and animosity. Take pains to refrain from sharp words. If they escape your lips, do not be ashamed to let your words produce the remedy since they have caused the wounds.

It is a rusty arrow and poison for the soul. It puts all virtue to flight.” – St. Francis of Paola

“Force yourself, if necessary, always to forgive those who offend you, from the very first moment. For the greatest injury or offense you can suffer from them is nothing compared to what God has forgiven you.” – St. Josemaria Escriva
