I think the first step is to understand that forgiveness does not exonerate the perpetrator. Forgiveness liberates the victim. It's a gift you give yourself.

Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names.

We win by tenderness. We conquer by forgiveness.

The first step in forgiveness is the willingness to forgive.

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

Forgive many things in others nothing in yourself.

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

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

My desire is to be a forgiving, non-judgmental person.

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