To deal with the stark reality of having hit or hurt a woman or child, to deal with the initial responsibility you have not to do that and the knowledge you did do it, can be incredibly hard.

It takes considerable knowledge just to realize the extent of your own ignorance.

When a man's knowledge is not in order, the more of it he has the greater will be his confusion.
Herbert Spencer, English Philosopher (1820-1903)
If you're a singer you lose your voice. A baseball player loses his arm. A writer gets more knowledge, and if he's good, the older he gets, the better he writes.

Rod Steiger, American Actor (1925-2002)
The desire of knowledge, like the thirst of riches, increases ever with the acquisition of it.
Laurence Sterne, Irish Novelist (1713-1768)
