About This Quote

Victims are members of society whose problems represent the memory of suffering, rage, and pain in a world that longs to forget. The victims are those people who have been affected by violence or abuse. They are the bare-chested victims handcuffed to their hospital beds, they are the children who have been raped before they can even speak, and they are the women who have been abused by their husbands for years. The victims are those people whose problems represent the memory of suffering, rage, and pain in a world that longs to forget.
