About This Quote
Grace represents the sublime glamour of human souls, the ability of physically courageous and emotionally brave people to give part of them in order to protect other people regardless of adverse consequence that they might personally endure. A true understanding of grace must begin with the idea that individuals are born with varying levels of strength and weakness. When one is weak, another is strong. When one is strong, another is weak. The strongest person can be the weakest person at times, but the weakest person can be the strongest at times.
