Best Quotes about Forgiveness
A woman who can't forgive should never have more than a nodding acquaintance with a man.
Howe, Edgar Watson
A reconciled friend is a double enemy.
Proverb
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned.
Francis of Assisi, St.
Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the future.
Boese, Paul
In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace. [Ephesians 1:7]
Bible
Forgiveness is God's command.
Luther, Martin
Forgiveness is a virtue of the brave.
Gandhi, Indira
Forgive many things in others; nothing in yourself.
Ausonius
Once a woman has forgiven her man, she must not reheat his sins for breakfast.
Dietrich, Marlene
What is forgiven is usually well remembered.
Dudek, Louis
Wrongs are often forgiven, but contempt never is. Our pride remembers it forever. It implies a discovery of weakness, which we are more careful to conceal than a crime. Many a man will confess his crimes to a friend; but I never knew a man that would tell his silly weaknesses to his most intimate one.
Chesterfield, Lord
Those who easily forgive invite offenses.
Corneille, Pierre
It really doesn't matter if the person who hurt you deserves to be forgiven. Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself. You have things to do and you want to move on.
Real Live Preacher
When you are happy you can forgive a great deal.
Diana, Princess of Wales
There is no sense in crying over spilt milk. Why bewail what is done and cannot be recalled?
Sophocles
God will forgive me, that's his business.
Heine, Heinrich
Nobody ever forgets where he buried the hatchet.
Hubbard, Kin
There is no revenge so complete as forgiveness.
Josh Billings
Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it
Twain, Mark
I can forgive, but I cannot forget, is only another way of saying, I cannot forgive.
Beecher, Henry Ward
Never does the human soul appear so strong and noble as when it forgoes revenge and dares to forgive an injury.
Chapin, Edwin Hubbel
Always forgive your enemies -- nothing annoys them so much.
Wilde, Oscar
He who has not forgiven an enemy has never yet tasted one of the most sublime enjoyments of life.
Lauter
Forgiveness is the healing of wounds caused by another. You choose to let go of a past wrong and no longer be hurt by it. Forgiveness is a strong move to make, like turning your shoulders sideways to walk quickly on a crowded sidewalk. It's your move.
Real Live Preacher
Forgotten is forgiven.
This is certain, that a man that studieth revenge keeps his wounds green, which otherwise would heal and do well.
Bacon, Francis
You should pardon many things in others, nothing in yourself.
Auson
The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.
Mahatma Gandhi
I never forgive, but I always forget.
Balfour, Arthur James
A winner rebukes and forgives; a loser is too timid to rebuke and too petty to forgive
Harris, Sidney J.
Never repeat old grievances.
Proverb
If I owe Smith ten dollars and God forgives me, that doesn't pay Smith.
Ingersoll, Robert Green
It is a very delicate job to forgive a man, without lowering him in his own estimation, and yours too.
Shaw, Henry Wheeler
If the other person injures you, you may forget the injury; but if you injure him you will always remember.
Gibran, Kahlil
The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the na?ve forgive and forget; the wise forgive but do not forget.
Szasz, Thomas
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.
Augustine, St.
We easily pardon an offense we had part in.
Juoy
Their errors have been weighed and found to have been dust in the balance; if their sins were as scarlet, they are now white as snow: they have been washed in the blood of the mediator and the redeemer, Time.
Shelley, Percy Bysshe
Forgiveness is the oil of relationships.
Mcdowell, Josh
Forgive, son; men are men; they needs must err.
Euripides
The best thing about giving of ourselves is that what we get is always better than what we give. The reaction is greater than the action.
Marden, Orison Swett
A man must learn to forgive himself.
Ficke, Arthur Davison
We pardon to the extent that we love.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
To forgive oneself? No, that doesn't work: we have to be forgiven. But we can only believe this is possible if we ourselves can forgive.
Hammarskjold, Dag
Thou must be emptied of that wherewith thou art full, that thou mayest be filled with that whereof thou art empty.
Augustine, St.
In contrast to revenge, which is the natural, automatic reaction to transgression and which, because of the irreversibility of the action process can be expected and even calculated, the act of forgiving can never be predicted; it is the only reaction that acts in an unexpected way and thus retains, though being a reaction, something of the original character of action.
Arendt, Hannah
The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naive forgive and forget; the wise forgive but do not forget.
Thomas Szasz
To err is human, to forgive is divine.
Pope, Alexander
Forget and forgive. This is not difficult when properly understood. It means forget inconvenient duties, then forgive yourself for forgetting. By rigid practice and stern determination, it comes easy.
Twain, Mark
The hatred you're carrying is a live coal in your heart - far more damaging to yourself than to them.
