The first step in forgiveness is the willingness to forgive.

People can be more forgiving than you can imagine. But you have to forgive yourself. Let go of what's bitter and move on.

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

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

It's far easier to forgive an enemy after you've got even with him.

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

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

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

The fact is there is forgiveness for those who seek God. And I believe in the power of redemption.

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