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

Forgiveness is the final form of love.

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

There is no revenge so complete as forgiveness.

People can be more forgiving than you can imagine. But you have to forgive yourself. Let go of what's bitter and move on.

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

Forgiveness really is so misunderstood, as well as the power it can release in an individual.

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

Genuine forgiveness does not deny anger but faces it head-on.

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