Forgiveness is about empowering yourself, rather than empowering your past.

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

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

We win by tenderness. We conquer by forgiveness.

Forgiveness is the remission of sins. For it is by this that what has been lost, and was found, is saved from being lost again.

Always forgive your enemies - nothing annoys them so much.

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

Forgive many things in others nothing in yourself.

It is often easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission.

Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.
