Love

John Birkimer lifted this from a David Brooks column:
In a famous passage, Reinhold Niebuhr put it best: “Nothing that is worth doing can
be achieved in our lifetime; therefore, we must be saved by hope. ... Nothing we do,
however virtuous, can be accomplished alone; therefore, we are saved by love.
No virtuous act is quite as virtuous from the standpoint of our friend or foe as
it is from our standpoint. Therefore, we must be saved by the final form of love,
which is forgiveness.”
