A stiff apology is like none

A stiff apology is a second insult... The injured party does not want to be compensated because he has been wronged; he wants to be healed because he has been hurt.

Gilbert Chesterton
(1874-1936)



Dutch translation/ Nederlandse vertaling > Stugge verontschuldiging is als geen

  1. We know that there are only two good healing masters. This are Jesus who is at our disposal and his father. God wants us to remove all suffering and gives the prospect for a wonderful world that will be effective after the Great Battle. After the return of Jesus Christ we can not longer apologize to the others, because then the time has come for us to account for Jesus.
