"The more we know, the better we forgive. Those who feel deeply feel for all living beings." - Madame de Stael
"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
