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

When you forgive, you in no way change the past - but you sure do change the future.

Forgiveness is the final form of love.

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

When there's that forgiveness present and compassion, it just helps you live so much easier.

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

To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you.

The ineffable joy of forgiving and being forgiven forms an ecstasy that might well arouse the envy of the gods.

My desire is to stand up and brush myself off when I make mistakes and ask for forgiveness.

A mistake is always forgivable, rarely excusable and always unacceptable.
