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

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

Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names.

Mistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit them.

Always forgive your enemies - nothing annoys them so much.

Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.

Never forget the three powerful resources you always have available to you: love, prayer, and forgiveness.

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

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

I can forgive, but I cannot forget, is only another way of saying, I will not forgive. Forgiveness ought to be like a cancelled note - torn in two, and burned up, so that it never can be shown against one.
