1 " Defeat anger, stop using it as a shield against truth, and you will find the compassion you need to forgive the people you love. "
― Glenn Beck , The 7: Seven Wonders That Will Change Your Life
2 " You can't love your mother or father if you don't also have the capacity to grieve their deaths and, perhaps even more so, grieve parts of their lives. "
3 " Human empathy, while not found on any chart of human anatomy, is the reason we instinctively hurt for our children… it is the reason that one human being’s intensely personal tests and triumphs can be harnessed to the good of countless others. "
4 " When you aren't drinking or using drugs or spending lots of money on fancy toys or basking in the glow of fame or working all the time or eating your way through the refrigerator, being hateful and angry is a very handy shield from the truth. It lets you focus on everyone else's shortcomings, and all the ways they have let you down. You can bemoan how all these broken people keep finding you somehow. That way you don't have to focus on what really matters -- the tough work of fiing what is broken inside you. "
5 " I was still searching for someone to blame for my suffering. I really wanted someone to transfer my hate to, so that I could stop hating myself. "
6 " I told you, God is not coy. He's more likely to hit you across the forehead with a two-by-four than whisper in your ear "
7 " Trust me: if you just pick up the really obvious bread crumbs, you will find that you have more than enough to find your path. It will transform your life. God isn’t trying to hide anything from you. He’s not being coy or playing games for His own amusement. He’s trying hard to show you the way. "
