Remember

Remember nothing that you taught yourself, for you were badly taught. And who would keep a senseless lesson in his mind, when he can learn and can preserve a better one?

When ancient memories of hate appear, remember that their cause is gone. And so you cannot understand what they are for.
 Let not the cause that you would give them now be what it was that made them what they were, or seemed to be.

Be glad that it is gone, for this is what you would be pardoned from. And see, instead, the new effects of cause accepted now, with consequences here.

They will surprise you with their loveliness. The ancient new ideas they bring will be the happy consequences of a Cause so ancient that it far exceeds the span of memory which your perception sees.
