Forgiveness is a funny thing. It warms the heart and cools the sting.

Forgiveness is like faith. You have to keep reviving it.

I believe in the forgiveness of sin and the redemption of ignorance.

Forgiveness is the economy of the heart... forgiveness saves the expense of anger, the cost of hatred, the waste of spirits.

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

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

Forgiveness is an act of the will, and the will can function regardless of the temperature of the heart.

I shall be an autocrat, that's my trade and the good Lord will forgive me, that's his.

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