10 forgiveness quotes from some of the most influential people

There are some things in life that you cannot stress too much, forgiveness is one such thing. I know I spoke about forgiveness before on this blog. However, it is never too much. You cannot “over forgive” so it cannot be over emphasized that you have to forgive. There is absolutely nothing gained from holding a grudge, all it does is waste your energy. Fine, so someone did you wrong once and you cut them off and hold that anger in your heart forever. How does that help you? What are you gaining from constantly being mad and unforgiving?

Here are a few quotes about forgiveness from some very wise people, let it go, let’s start forgiving not for them but for you:

Lewis B. Amended

“To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you.”
