I would say the hierarchy has made terrible errors in judgment and it has to seek forgiveness by its members. – William P. Leahy

I really do believe that God is love, one of deep affection and grace and forgiveness and inspiration. – William P. Young

I can forgive, but I cannot forget, is only another way of saying, I will not forgive. Forgiveness ought to be like a canceled note — torn in two, and burned up, so that it never can be shown against one. – Henry Ward Beecher
