The public is wonderfully tolerant. It forgives everything except genius.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate only love can do that.

Acceptance and tolerance and forgiveness, those are life-altering lessons.

The first step in forgiveness is the willingness to forgive.

Mistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit them.

Forgiveness really is so misunderstood, as well as the power it can release in an individual.

Forgive many things in others nothing in yourself.

The practice of forgiveness is our most important contribution to the healing of the world.

Without forgiveness life is governed by... an endless cycle of resentment and retaliation.

You will know that forgiveness has begun when you recall those who hurt you and feel the power to wish them well.
