I set my star so high that I would constantly be in motion toward it.
-------Sidney Poitier
I have learned that I must find positive outlets for anger, its flame burns because the world is so unjust.
I have to try to find a way to channel that anger to the positive, and the highest positive is forgiveness.
-----Sidney Poitier
The Highest Positive: Forgiveness
Forgiveness works two ways. People have to forgive themselves too. The powerful have to forgive themselves for their behavior. That should be a sacred process.
------Sidney Poitier

With knowledge you can grasp tight a belief: that you can be better, that the world can be better. With that, you can claim hope, the eternal tool for mankind.
-------Sidney Poitier

And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.
-----Romans 8:28

—- Nelson Mandela.
