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.

Forgive many things in others; nothing in yourself.

Anger makes you smaller, while forgiveness forces you to grow beyond what you were.

If you haven't forgiven yourself something, how can you forgive others?

To err is human; to forgive, infrequent.

'Tis the most tender part of love, each other to forgive.

There is no revenge so complete as forgiveness.

Forgiveness is almost a selfish act because of its immense benefits to the one who forgives.

The hatred you're carrying is a live coal in your heart - far more damaging to yourself than to them.

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

Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

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.

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.

No one forgives with more grace and love than a child.

It is easier to get forgiveness than permission.

The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naive forgive and forget; the wise forgive but do not forget.

A woman can forgive a man for the harm he does her...but she can never forgive him for the sacrifices he makes on her account.

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