Myrtle : You know I know this man put a hurtin' on you baby, but you've got to forgive him. No matter what he done, you've got to forgive him - not for him, but for you.
Helen : Forgive him for me?
Myrtle : When some body hurts you they take power over you, if you don't forgive them then they keeps the power. Forgive him baby and after you forgive him, forgive youreself.

Madea : I remember this dude made me so mad, I didn't even know how mad I was until I went to his funeral.
Helen : Why were you so mad at him?
Madea : Because he hit me. Yes he hit me... and I didn't even know how mad I was until I saw him in his casket, he's 8 feet under.
Myrtle : 6 feet, that's how they bury people, Madea, 6 feet under.
Madea : That's what I'm trying to say, I thought I was over what he did to me until I saw him at the funeral, I was so mad I BEAT HIM DOWN 2 more feet.
