"How can you ask for forgiveness from others, if you can’t forgive yourself?"

"No one has said sorry, no one has shown remorse, and no one has taken responsibility. So I do not forgive those who were responsible. Would you?"

"I have come to believe passionately in restorative justice."

"I tell them that I believe forgiveness begins with understanding, but you have to work through layers to obtain it."

"We live in a blame culture where people now assume that if anything goes wrong you should sue."

"I don’t deserve forgiveness, but unless you can reach that point where you feel OK, you can never fully heal and move on."

"Having been saved myself I feel I must do my best to save others."

"If you can find it in yourself to forgive then you are no longer chained to the perpetrator."
