A short summary of the book Unbroken:
An athlete's survival through WWII and the Pacific Ocean.
My favorite Laura Hillenbrand quote from the book:
"The paradox of vengefulness is that it makes men dependent upon those who have harmed them, believing that their release from pain will come only when their tormentors suffer."
Questions I pondered while reading Unbroken:
Why does cruelty come so easily?
Why is forgiveness so hard?
My thoughts about Unbroken:
WWII was just bad.
Where was everyone's compassion?
Take a moment to remember all the veterans of WWII.
