Mercy

I have always found that mercy bears richer fruits than strict justice. -Abraham Lincoln, 16th U.S. President (1809-1865)

Wise quote from one of my favorite wise men.  There is a difference between being soft and being merciful.  Mercy comes from strength and knowledge and kindness.  Softness comes from weakness, perhaps even laziness.
