Admonition for Peacemakers
"The peace which you proclaim with words must dwell even more abundantly in your hearts. Do not provoke others to anger or give scandal. Rather, let your gentleness draw them to peace, goodness, and concord. This is our vocation: to heal wounds, to bind what is broken, to bring home those who are lost." --Legend of the Three Companions, 58 (1305-1320)
"Hurt people hurt people." Just coming to Christ is not enough. You have to let Him heal you so He can use you to heal the wounds of others. If you are broken and hurting, how can you help others? They will not believe your words of peace.

"Hurt people hurt people." "You have to let Him heal you so He can use you to heal the wounds of others." I can certainly relate to the above quotes.
