Remorse Presupposes Enough Self-forgetfulness To

There Are Spaces Of Sorrow Only God Can Touch.

Lavish Love On Others Receive It Gratefully When It Come To You. Cultivate Friendship Like A Garden. It Is The Best Love Of All.

When People Of Color Are Killed In The Inner City, When Homeless People Are Killed, When The "nobodies" Are Killed, District Attorneys Do Not Seek To Avenge Their Deaths. Black, Hispanic, Or Poor Families Who Have A Loved One Murdered Not Only Don't Expect The District Attorney's Office To Pursue The Death Penalty -which, Of Course, Is Both Costly And Time Consuming- But Are Surprised When The Case Is Prosecuted At All.

The Death Penalty Is A Poor Person's Issue. Always Remember That: After All The Rhetoric That Goes On In The Legislative Assemblies, In The End, When The Deck Is Cast Out, It Is The Poor Who Are Selected To Die In This Country.

We Are Not The Worst Moments Of Our Lives. Sister Helen Prejean, Author Of Dead Man Walking.
