Alan Paton

Citas

• “...there is only one thing that has power completely, and this is love. Because when a man loves, he seeks no power, and therefore he has power.”

• “Sorrow is better than fear. Fear is a journey,a terrible journey, but sorrow is at least an arrival. When the storm threatens, a man is afraid for his house. But when the house is destroyed, there is something to do. About a storm he can do nothing, but he can rebuild a house.”

• “The tragedy is not that things are broken. The tragedy is that things are not mended again.”

• “The Judge does not make the law. It is people that make the law. Therefore if a law is unjust, and if the Judge judges according to the law, that is justice, even if it is not just.”

• “For who can stop the heart from breaking?”
