    “You can’t change what happened between you and your ex-spouse, but you can change your attitude about it. Forgiveness doesn’t mean that what your ex did was right or that you condone what he or she did; it simply means that you no longer want to hold a grudge. Forgiveness is not a gift for the other person; it is a purely selfish act that allows you to put the past behind you.”
    —Stephanie Marston (20th century)

    “... it is seldom a medical man has true religious views—there is too much pride of intellect.”
    —George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    “The conversion of a savage to Christianity is the conversion of Christianity to savagery.”
