In forgiving, people are not being asked to forget. On the contrary, it is important to remember, so that we should not let such atrocities happen again. Forgiveness does not mean condoning what has been done. It means taking what happened seriously...drawing out the sting in the memory that threatens our entire existence. (Atrocities Quotes)

It is said that peace is the basic tenet of all religion. Yet it is in the name of religion that there has been so much disturbance, bloodshed and persecution. It is indeed a pity that even at the close of the twentieth century we’ve had to witness such atrocities because of religion. Flying the flag of religion has always proved the easiest way to crush to nothingness human beings as well as the spirit of humanity (Atrocities Quotes)
No regrets. Never never any regrets. Everything has been an experience and has led to me now. Everything has been important and essential. Fear... I’m afraid of what people, including myself, are capable of, but it also excites me. I’m afraid of the atrocities that we are capable of and the things that can happen if everyone makes decisions based on fear (Atrocities Quotes)

It is true that all of us are the beneficiaries of crimes committed by our ancestors, and it is true that nothing can be done about that now because the victims are dead and the survivors are innocent.

We know that silence equals consent when atrocities are committed against innocent men, women and children. We know that indifference equals complicity when bigotry, hatred and intolerance are allowed to take root. And we know that education and hope are the most effective ways to combat ignorance and despair (Atrocities Quotes)
It has never happened in history that a nation that has won a war has been held accountable for atrocities committed in preparing for and waging that war. We intend to make this one different.

We recognize our role in history is to bring the transgressors to justice (Atrocities Quotes)
The prison guards are capable of committing daily atrocities and obscenities, smiling the smile of the angels all the while (Atrocities Quotes)
