"The sun will stand as your best man
And whistle
When you have found the courage
To marry forgiveness
When you have found the courage
to marry
Love." - Hafiz of Persia
"In order to hold on to thoughts of anger, bitterness, revenge, guilt, and shame, we have to use a lot of energy." - Edwene Gaines
"All intimacy is rare -- that's what makes it precious. And it involves the revelation of one's self and the loving gaze upon another's true self (no makeup, no fancy car, no defensive charm, no seduction) -- that's what makes it so damn hard. Intimacy requires honesty and kindness in almost equal measure (a little more kindness, I think), trust and trustworthiness, forgiveness and the capacity to be forgiven . . . It's more than worth it -- just don't let them tell you it's bliss." - Amy Bloom
"We are all full of weakness and errors; let us mutually pardon each other our follies." - Voltaire
