Best Quotes about Forgiveness
Absolute virtue is impossible and the republic of forgiveness leads, with implacable logic, to the republic of the guillotine.
Camus, Albert
Forgiveness is God's command.
Luther, Martin
Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it
Twain, Mark
Forgiveness is the oil of relationships.
Mcdowell, Josh
This is certain, that a man that studieth revenge keeps his wounds green, which otherwise would heal and do well.
Bacon, Francis
The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naive forgive and forget; the wise forgive but do not forget.
Thomas Szasz
Those that do you a very ill deed will never forgive you.
Proverb
Those who easily forgive invite offenses.
Corneille, Pierre
There is no sense in crying over spilt milk. Why bewail what is done and cannot be recalled?
Sophocles
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned.
Francis of Assisi, St.
And if your friend does evil to you, say to him, I forgive you for what you did to me, but how can I forgive you for what you did to yourself?
Nietzsche, Friedrich
Nobody ever forgets where he buried the hatchet.
Hubbard, Kin
Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the future.
Boese, Paul
Forgiveness is almost a selfish act because of its immense benefits to the one who forgives.
Lawana Blackwell
If a good person does you wrong, act as though you had not noticed it. They will make note of this and not remain in your debt long.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
And be kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you. [Ephesians 4:32]
Bible
Of course God will forgive me; that's His job.
Heine, Heinrich
It is easier to forgive an enemy than a friend.
Deluzy, Madame Dorothe
Forgive him, for he believes that the customs of his tribe are the laws of nature!
Shaw, George Bernard
A winner rebukes and forgives; a loser is too timid to rebuke and too petty to forgive
Harris, Sidney J.
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
Forgiveness does not always lead to a healed relationship. Some people are not capable of love, and it might be wise to let them go along with your anger. Wish them well, and let them go their way.
Real Live Preacher
If you haven't forgiven yourself something, how can you forgive others?
Dolores Huerta
The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness.
Balzac, Honore De
The world can forgive practically anything except people who mind their own business.
Mitchell, Margaret
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
You should pardon many things in others, nothing in yourself.
Auson
I never forgive, but I always forget.
Balfour, Arthur James
If I die, I forgive you. If I live we shall see.
Proverb, Spanish
If the other person injures you, you may forget the injury; but if you injure him you will always remember.
Gibran, Kahlil
Giving The best thing to give to your enemy is forgiveness; to an opponent, tolerance; to a friend, your heart; to your child, a good example; to a father, deference; to your mother, conduct that will make her proud of you; to yourself, respect; to all men.
Beecher, Henry Ward
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
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
Forgive, son; men are men; they needs must err.
Euripides
Whoever approaches Me walking, I will come to him running; and he who meets Me with sins equivalent to the whole world, I will greet him with forgiveness equal to it.
Al-massabaih, Mishkat
To apologize is to lay the foundation for a future offense.
Bierce, Ambrose
He who has not forgiven an enemy has never yet tasted one of the most sublime enjoyments of life.
Lauter
Love thy neighbor as thyself: Do not to others what thou wouldn't not wish be done to thyself: Forgive injuries. Forgive thy enemy, be reconciled to him, give him assistance, invoke God in his behalf.
Confucius
To err is human, to forgive is divine.
Pope, Alexander
In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace. [Ephesians 1:7]
Bible
Once a woman has forgiven her man, she must not reheat his sins for breakfast.
Dietrich, Marlene
I can forgive, but I cannot forget, is only another way of saying, I will not forgive. Forgiveness ought to be like a canceled note -- torn in two, and burned up, so that it never can be shown against one.
Beecher, Henry Ward
There is no revenge so complete as forgiveness.
Josh Billings
Never does the human soul appear so strong and noble as when it forgoes revenge and dares to forgive an injury.
Chapin, Edwin Hubbel
Forgiveness is a virtue of the brave.
Gandhi, Indira
Forgive yourself for your faults and your mistakes and move on.
Brown, Les
The hatred you're carrying is a live coal in your heart - far more damaging to yourself than to them.
Lawana Blackwell
The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the na?ve forgive and forget; the wise forgive but do not forget.
Szasz, Thomas
We all like to forgive, and love best not those who offend us least, nor who have done most for us, but those who make it most easy for us to forgive them.
Butler, Samuel
Forgive you? -- Oh, of course, dear, a dozen times a week! We women were created forgiveness but to speak.
Higginson, Ella
