2# Before you embark on a journey of revenge, dig two graves. What this quote means to me is before you go and plain on doing something bad to another person because they may have hurt you or someone you care about.Dig two graves because its only going to go back and forth.And more than likely you and that other person is going to be hurt and you both have sined.
Forget injuries, never forget kindnesses i think it mean when you help people that was ill one day the will get better and help you out when you need help or it will come back on you in a good way
