I like these words from old Charles in the movie:
"it’s not their pain you are afraid of. It’s yours Charles. And as
frightening as it may be, their pain will make you stronger. If you allow
yourself to feel it. Embrace it. It will make you more powerful that you
ever imagined. It’s the greatest gift we have - to bear their pain without
breaking. It’s born from the most human power - Hope. "
