Gilbert K. Chesterton Quotes, Friendship Quotes, Father Quotes

These are the things which might conceivably and truly make men forgive their enemies. We can only turn hate to love by understanding what are the things that men have loved; nor is it necessary to ask men to hate their loves in order to love one another.
