Where there is injury, pardon; Where there is discord, union; Where there is doubt, faith; Where there is error, truth; Where there is despair, hope; Where there is darkness, light; Where there is sadness, joy. O, Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console: To be understood, as to understand; To be loved, as to love: For it is in giving that we receive, It is in pardoning that we are pardoned, And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. - attributed to Saint Francis of Assisi
