Thank you, God, for this good life and forgive us if we do not love it enough.

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

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

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

Forgive yourself for your faults and your mistakes and move on.

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

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

Soon I realized that if beauty equalled forgiveness, I was never going to be forgiven.

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

God's forgiveness allows us to be honest with ourselves. We recognize our imperfections, admit our failures, and plead to God for clemency.
