"O God [...] You were not ashamed of your wounds. You showed them to Thomas as marks of your ordeal and death.
I will no longer hide these wounds of mine. I will bear them gracefully. They tell a resurrection story".
(A survivor quoted in Marie M. Fortune and Judith Hertze,
"A Commentary on Religious Issues in Family Violence")
