“ The mind that too frequently forgives bad actions will at last forget good ones. Frederic Reynolds Dramatist
“ With a little time, and a little more insight, we begin to see both ourselves and our enemies in humbler profiles. We are not really as innocent as we felt when we were first hurt. And we do not usually have a gigantic monster to forgive; we have a weak, needy, and somewhat stupid human being. When you see your enemy and yourself in the weakness and silliness of the humanity you share, you will make the miracle of forgiving a little easier. Lewis B. Smedes Author
“ To be forgiven is not enough; we must put an end to the very need to be forgiven. Bernadette Roberts
“ God pardons like a mother, who kisses the offense into everlasting forgiveness. Henry Ward Beecher Minister
