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

The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.

Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names.

Love is an act of endless forgiveness, a tender look which becomes a habit.

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

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

I think we learn the most from imperfect relationships - things like forgiveness and compassion.

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

Reversing your treatment of the man you have wronged is better than asking his forgiveness.
