* "We cannot change the past, but we can change our attitude toward it. Uproot guilt and plant forgiveness. Tear out arrogance and seed humility. Exchange love for hate --- thereby, making the present comfortable and the future promising."
-- Maya Angelou
-- Hannah Arendt
Our anger and annoyance are more detrimental to us than the things themselves which anger or annoy us.
--Marcus Aurelius
Be angry, and yet do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger.
-- Henry Ward Beecher“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.”
-- Henry Ward Beecher
Whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
-- The Bible, Matthew 5:39There is no revenge so complete as forgiveness.
-- Josh BillingsLife appears to me too short to be spent in nursing animosity or registering wrongs.
-- Charlotte Bronte
"Forgiving is one of the most difficult things for a human being to do, but I think it means looking at some slight you feel, putting yourself in the position of the other person, and wiping away any sort of resentment and antagonism you feel toward them. Then let that other person know that everything is perfectly friendly and normal between you."
~ Jimmy CarterAnger makes you smaller, while forgiveness forces you to grow beyond what you were.
-- Cherie Carter-ScottForgo your anger for a moment and save yourself a hundred days of trouble.
-- Chinese proverb"The man who opts for revenge should dig two graves."
-- Chinese proverbThe price of hating other human beings is loving oneself less.
-- Elderidge Cleaver"I think forgiveness is an aspect of our humanity. I think a lot of as are brought up to believe that if we don't somehow forgive, whatever it is that's ailing, troubling, angering, enraging or shaming us, or getting us in any way worked up, is going to live longer without forgiveness, whether it's ourselves or others we're forgiving."
-- Robert ColesWhen anger rises, think of the consequences.
-- Confucius
* People can be more forgiving than you can imagine. But you have to forgive yourself. Let go of what's bitter and move on
-- Bill Cosby
Life is an adventure in forgiveness.
-- Norman Cousins
We plant seeds that will flower as results in our lives, so best to remove the weeds of anger, avarice, envy and doubt, that peace and abundance may manifest for all.
-- Dorothy Day
When you are happy you can forgive a great deal.
-- Princess Diana
* “teach myself to see each of us
through the lens of forgiveness
-- Ani DiFranco
“teach myself to see each of us
through the lens of forgiveness
like we're stuck with each other (god forbid!)
teach myself to smile and stop and talk
to a whole other color kid
teach myself to be new in an instant
like the truth is accessible at any time
teach myself it's never really one or the other
there's a paradox in every paradigm.
-- Ani DiFranco
The only way children can learn the habit of forgiveness is by seeing us, their parents, forgive others and forgive ourselves.
-- Naomi DrewPeace is not possible without forgiveness.
-- Naomi DrewThe freedom to be at peace in our own skins - that’s what forgiveness allows. We relinquish this freedom when we hold onto anger and resentment. Enormous amounts of energy are wasted when we hold back our love, hold onto hate, and harbor acrimonious feelings. The only remedy is letting go, and being willing to forgive.
-- Naomi Drew
