8. All of us, whether guilty or not, whether old or young, must accept the past… it is not a case of coming to terms with the past. That is not possible. It cannot be subsequently modified or undone. However, anyone who closes his eyes to the past is blind to the present. Whoever refuses to remember the inhumanity is prone to new risks of infection… seeking to forget makes exile all the longer; the secret of redemption lies in remembrance. Richard von Weizsacker President, Federal Republic of Germany (1984-1994)

10. Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; and them which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body. Hebrews 13:3

13. I do not bring forgiveness with me, nor forgetfulness. The only ones who can forgive are dead; the living have no right to forget. Chaim Herzog President of Israel 1983-1993
