Quotes by Les Brown

Forgive yourself for your faults and your mistakes and move on.

Quotes by Lee Unkrich

Quotes by Kirk Cameron

Quotes by Kevyn Aucoin

In the Lord's Prayer, Jesus assumes that asking for forgiveness would be a daily occurrence, as would praying that we might be delivered from evil and led not into temptation.

Quotes by Kevin DeYoung

I've learned powerful lessons about the nature of forgiveness from human rights defenders. For example, for the greater good of his country, Kofi Woods emerged from a torture chamber in Liberia to later defend the very men who had brutalized him.

Quotes by Kerry Kennedy

Forgiveness is a gift, and central to faith.

Quotes by Kerry Kennedy

We'd do better to follow the admonition of Jesus about loving our neighbours. People in the U.S. are capable of forgiveness and willing to see one another's point of view, but when matters become politicised, we're less able to do that.

Quotes by Kent Haruf

Love in the real world means saying you're sorry 10 times a day.

Quotes by Karl Barth

Since I began my practice of Forgiveness Therapy, it's now instinctual for me to choose to eat like I love myself - instead of eating like I wanted to punish myself. Plus I've not only lost weight, I've lost the anger and anxiety I was feeling, and so I feel happier and calmer within.

Quotes by Karen Salmansohn

I'm currently in an interesting correspondence with a nun about forgiveness.

Quotes by Julian Clary

If you don't believe God has forgiven you, you are actually saying that God needs to do more for your forgiveness, and that Jesus' sacrifice was not enough.

Quotes by Jud Wilhite

If Jesus Christ was who He claimed to be, and He did die on a cross at a point of time in history, then, for all history past and all history future it is relevant because that is the very focal point for forgiveness and redemption.

Quotes by Josh McDowell

There is no revenge so complete as forgiveness.

Quotes by Josh Billings

Knowing that you are completely forgiven destroys the power of sin in your life.

Quotes by Joseph Prince

We are not forgiven because we are good. We are forgiven because Christ bore our sins.

Quotes by Joseph Prince

And the only thing to do with a sin is to confess, do penance and then, after some kind of decent interval, ask for forgiveness.

Quotes by Joseph J. Ellis

To sin offers repentance and forgiveness; not to sin offers only punishment.

Quotes by Jose Bergamin

The Gospel offers forgiveness for the past, new life for the present, and hope for the future.

Quotes by John Sentamu

Quotes by John Rowland

Quotes by John Rowland

In 2006, 2 years ago, I made a very serious mistake. A mistake that I am responsible for and no one else. In 2006, I told Elizabeth about the mistake, asked her for her forgiveness, asked God for his forgiveness.

Quotes by John Edwards

Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names.

Quotes by John F. Kennedy

We believe that the farm should be building 'forgiveness' into the ecosystem. What does that mean? That a more forgiving ecosystem is one that can better handle drought, flood, disease, pestilence.

Quotes by Joel Salatin

Holding on to anger, resentment and hurt only gives you tense muscles, a headache and a sore jaw from clenching your teeth. Forgiveness gives you back the laughter and the lightness in your life.

Quotes by Joan Lunden

As we know, forgiveness of oneself is the hardest of all the forgivenesses.

Quotes by Joan Baez

I have sinned against You, my Lord, and I would ask that your precious blood would wash and cleanse every stain until it is in the seas of God's forgiveness.

Quotes by Jimmy Swaggart

God's forgiveness is the only thing. And, well, I take full responsibility for the adultery. It was my fault and, you know, no matter what went on, the man has to take responsibility; and I do.

Quotes by Jim Bakker

I struggle with insecurities. I struggle with forgiveness. I struggle with letting someone go that did me dirty without vengeance, which is an evil thing.

Quotes by Jessie Reyez

Forgiveness is the needle that knows how to mend.

Quotes by Jewel

Prejudice is sinful. All blood flows red. And the most harmful and foolish kind of prejudice is prejudice against yourself. Every woman is your sister, and every woman needs her sisters. So try to give other women the courtesy of your compassion, respect, and forgiveness. Love yourself despite - and because of - your flaws.

Quotes by Jewell Parker Rhodes

Acceptance and tolerance and forgiveness, those are life-altering lessons.

Quotes by Jessica Lange

If there are occasions when my grape turned into a raisin and my joy bell lost its resonance, please forgive me. Charge it to my head and not to my heart.

Quotes by Jesse Jackson

It is very east to forgive others their mistakes; it takes more grit and gumption to forgive them for having witnessed your own.

Quotes by Jessamyn West

One of the things that Dostoevsky talks about is that no character is too high to fall and no character is too low to be redeemed. 'Crime and Punishment' began with a person going out and consciously becoming a cold-blooded murderer, and it took 800 pages and an epilogue before the person finally asked for forgiveness.

Quotes by Jeffrey Bell

I invite everyone to chose forgiveness rather than division, teamwork over personal ambition.

Quotes by Jean-Francois Cope

Humanity is never so beautiful as when praying for forgiveness, or else forgiving another.

Quotes by Jean Paul

I am making amends and seeking forgiveness. My only hope is that some good can come out of my situation.

Quotes by Jayson Blair

My desire is to be a forgiving, non-judgmental person.

Quotes by Janine Turner

My desire is to stand up and brush myself off when I make mistakes and ask for forgiveness.

Quotes by Janine Turner

What if we strove for compassion, for mercy, for forgiveness? And what if we did this for everybody, including people who have harmed others?

Quotes by James Forman, Jr.

If we can find forgiveness in our hearts for those who have caused us hurt and injury, we will rise to a higher level of self-esteem and well-being.

Quotes by James E. Faust

Forgiveness is a virtue of the brave.

Quotes by Indira Gandhi

The only thing I've settled in my mind is that I want to forgive, and forgiveness comes with forgetting.

Quotes by Ingrid Betancourt

My husband was a serial adulterer, and there was nothing I could do about it: no questions I could ask him, no argument I could have with him, no explanation he could give me or pleas he could make for forgiveness.

Quotes by Ingrid Seward

The power of forgiveness is huge; it is really big, and it can save this world.

Quotes by Immaculee Ilibagiza

Sins cannot be undone, only forgiven.

Quotes by Igor Stravinsky

As forces of hate in this country and worldwide try to pull Muslims and Christians apart, we are in desperate need of a unifying force that can bridge the widening gap of interfaith misunderstanding and mistrust. That force could be the message of love, peace, and forgiveness taught by Jesus and accepted by followers of both faiths.

Quotes by Ibrahim Hooper

In the Bible it says they asked Jesus how many times you should forgive, and he said 70 times 7. Well, I want you all to know that I'm keeping a chart.

Quotes by Hillary Clinton

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.

Quotes by Henry Ward Beecher

It is never too late to strengthen the foundation of faith. There is always time. With faith in the Savior, you can repent and plead for forgiveness. There is someone you can forgive. There is someone you can thank. There is someone you can serve and lift. You can do it wherever you are and however alone and deserted you may feel.

Quotes by Henry B. Eyring

Each life is unique. But for all, repentance will surely include passing through the portal of humble prayer. Our Father in Heaven can allow us to feel fully the conviction of our sins. He knows the depths of our remorse. He can then direct what we must do to qualify for forgiveness.

Quotes by Henry B. Eyring

God will forgive me. It's his job.

Quotes by Heinrich Heine

The bitterest tears shed over graves are for words left unsaid and deeds left undone.

Quotes by Harriet Beecher Stowe

'Caught' is a novel of forgiveness, and the past and the present - who should be and who shouldn't be forgiven. None of my books are ever just about thrills, or it won't work.

Quotes by Harlan Coben

Forgiveness is the key to action and freedom.

Quotes by Hannah Arendt

Forgiveness is the economy of the heart... forgiveness saves the expense of anger, the cost of hatred, the waste of spirits.

Quotes by Hannah More

Never forget the three powerful resources you always have available to you: love, prayer, and forgiveness.

Quotes by H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

It is often easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission.

Quotes by Grace Hopper

It seems to me like Mother Nature's mercy and forgiveness have run dry, as we ceaselessly abuse her and take her for granted in order for us to continue our addiction to using fossil fuels. I've gotta say, I don't blame her. Not one bit.

Quotes by Gloria Reuben

The forgiveness that comes of patient interpretation seems impossible when those nearest to your heart are threatened.

Quotes by Giles Foden

Forgiveness means letting go of the past.

Quotes by Gerald Jampolsky

When I am able to resist the temptation to judge others, I can see them as teachers of forgiveness in my life, reminding me that I can only have peace of mind when I forgive rather than judge.

Quotes by Gerald Jampolsky

I can have peace of mind only when I forgive rather than judge.

Quotes by Gerald Jampolsky

Inner peace can be reached only when we practice forgiveness. Forgiveness is letting go of the past, and is therefore the means for correcting our misperceptions.

Quotes by Gerald Jampolsky

Through faith in the Lord Jesus alone can we obtain forgiveness of our sins, and be at peace with God; but, believing in Jesus, we become, through this very faith, the children of God; have God as our Father, and may come to Him for all the temporal and spiritual blessings which we need.

Quotes by George Muller

Forgiveness is the giving, and so the receiving, of life.

Quotes by George MacDonald

He that cannot forgive others, breaks the bridge over which he himself must pass if he would ever reach heaven; for everyone has need to be forgiven.

Quotes by George Herbert

The characteristics of an authentically empowered personality are humbleness, clarity, forgiveness and love.

Quotes by Gary Zukav

Thank you, God, for this good life and forgive us if we do not love it enough.

Quotes by Garrison Keillor

It is in pardoning that we are pardoned.

Quotes by Francis of Assisi

Forgotten is forgiven.

Quotes by F. Scott Fitzgerald

Forgive, son; men are men; they needs must err.

Quotes by Euripides

9/11 revealed that those about to die do not seem afraid or plead for forgiveness for their sins, if they think about them at all. They all have one thing in mind - those they love - and they all do the same thing: They call them up - spouses, family or friends - to tell them they love them.

Quotes by Eugene Kennedy

There would be no need for love if perfection were possible. Love arises from our imperfection, from our being different and always in need of the forgiveness, encouragement and that missing half of ourselves that we are searching for, as the Greek myth tells us, in order to complete ourselves.

Quotes by Eugene Kennedy

I think faith gives us a structure around which to try to organize our lives. I'm also a big believer, and very thankful that there's forgiveness.

Quotes by Erik Prince

The power of forgiveness transcends personal relationships.

Quotes by Eric Metaxas

Thankfully, forgiveness, and the healing it brings in its wake, has nothing to do with 'deserve.'

Quotes by Eric Metaxas

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle. Then I realised that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me.

Quotes by Emo Philips

Before we can forgive one another, we have to understand one another.

Quotes by Emma Goldman

I desired to become a Christian, and prayed earnestly for the forgiveness of my sins. I felt a peace of mind resulting, and loved every one, feeling desirous that all should have their sins forgiven, and love Jesus as I did.

Quotes by Ellen G. White

If I get to the end of my life, if I die, and I find out religion is one big lie, I still won't regret it because it's helped me to live a better life, to be a better person, to care about people, to believe in forgiveness, to believe in hope.

Quotes by Elizabeth Smart

I think forgiveness is probably one of the greatest forms of self-love there is because you don't do forgiveness for anybody else. My captors will never care if I forgive them... It will not make a day of difference to them at all, but it will make a huge difference to me.

Quotes by Elizabeth Smart

God forgive you, but I never can.

Quotes by Elizabeth I

Forgiveness takes time. It is the last step of the grieving process.

Quotes by Elin Nordegren

The ineffable joy of forgiving and being forgiven forms an ecstasy that might well arouse the envy of the gods.

Elbert Hubbard

Reversing your treatment of the man you have wronged is better than asking his forgiveness.

Elbert Hubbard

Never does the human soul appear so strong as when it foregoes revenge and dares to forgive an injury.

Quotes by Edwin Hubbel Chapin

Anger ventilated often hurries towards forgiveness; anger concealed often hardens into revenge.

Quotes by Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton

On a level of simple personal survival, understanding and forgiveness are crucial... whether in an intimate personal relationship or on a global level.

Quotes by Edward Albert
