"When someone cares to listen or stretches out a hand, or whispers words of encouragement, or attempts to understand a lonely person or shares the pain of someone bereaved: when such compassion moves the heart in a way that allows prisoners to genuinely repent, widows to weep more openly and the tears of big men to flow more freely, extraordinary things begin to happen and sanity and humanity return to the world once more." William Forde: May 17th, 2013.
