"Understanding isn't learned from punishment and anger...." - Quote by Dolly Parton
Understanding isn't learned from punishment and anger. An iron has no gentle touch, and love ain't learned from hate.

“When its family, you tolerate what you'd kill others for.”
“I did not, thank the Lord, have to have a hysterectomy.”
“I do remember how it was to be poor. I do remember that in my early years, we had to grow and raise all of our food, even our animals. And I remember in my early life, we didn't even have electricity. So it was very, very hard times then.”
More on Wisdom
“The most basic inherent constraint is that neither time nor wisdom are free goods available in unlimited quantity. This means that in social processes, as in economic processes, it is not only impossible to attain perfection but irrational to seek perfection- or even to seek the best possible result in each separate instance.”
“Ask the right questions, and the answers will always reveal themselves.”
“I do not expect old heads on young shoulders.”
More on Love
“Love is the pursuit of the whole.”
“It is a heavy downpour of rain which drenches the soil to fullness; likewise only a profuse shower of love can overcome hatred.”
“Be someone who listens, and you will be heard. Be someone who cares, and you will be loved. Be someone who gives, and you will be blessed. Be someone who comforts, and you will know peace.”
