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

Forgiveness is the final form of love.

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

Forgiveness says you are given another chance to make a new beginning.

Forgiveness is like faith. You have to keep reviving it.

Forgiveness is a virtue of the brave.

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

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

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

The practice of forgiveness is our most important contribution to the healing of the world.
