The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.
--Mahatma Gandhi (1869 - 1948)
The hatred you're carrying is a live coal in your heart - far more damaging to yourself than to them.
--Lawana Blackwell The Dowry of Miss Lydia Clark, 1999
It really doesn't matter if the person who hurt you deserves to be forgiven. Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself. You have things to do and you want to move on.
--Real Live Preacher RealLivePreacher.com Weblog, July 7, 2003
If you haven't forgiven yourself something, how can you forgive others?
--Dolores Huerta

Oh those are really lovely, Holly.... Thank you for posting them.
The second quotation is indeed from the work you quote, but as an aside, it's a very ancient (Buddhist) teaching, though I have no doubt it is to be found elsewhere, too.
Really nice, thanks.

Never answer an angry word with an angry word. It�s the second one that makes the quarrel.

I'm posting this again, for someone who thinks they burdened me with their troubles (they did not):
�What makes loneliness an anguish is not that I have no one to share my burden, but this: I have only my own burden to bear.�

I like that one Holly - How about this one
"If friends were flowers, I'd pick you"
I don't know who said it, but I like it.
