Forgiveness is the giving, and so the receiving, of life.

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

We cannot embrace God's forgiveness if we are so busy clinging to past wounds and nursing old grudges.

It is easier to forgive an enemy than to forgive a friend.

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.

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

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

There is no love without forgiveness, and there is no forgiveness without love.

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