About This Quote

It is impossible to change your past. It is impossible to undo the mistakes of your past and it is impossible to change the people you've hurt. However, there is one thing that can be done. You can try to make amends and apologize to those whom you've hurt. If, however, he could just have one more chance, he'd act like the man he's always believed himself to be. He knows what he wants and if given a second chance he'd see it through.
