“It made me wonder how many times we forgive just because we don't want to lose someone, even if they don't deserve our forgiveness.”

“Can you ever forgive me?
I already have.
How could you? I don't deserve it.
That's what makes it love.”

“We are not mad. We are human. We want to love, and someone must forgive us for the paths we take to love, for the paths are many and dark, and we are ardent and cruel in our journey.”

“You don't need a reason to forgive… If you want to go on with someone, that is what you do.”

“Our position is we want a confirmatory ballot. It's very difficult for us to move off that because I don't think our party would forgive us if we signed off on Tory Brexit without that kind of concession.”

“And what if I don't want forgiveness?”

“I've been tryin' to get down to the Heart of the Matter
Because the flesh will get weak
And the ashes will scatter
So I'm thinkin' about forgiveness
Forgiveness
Even if you don't love me anymore.”

“This is why I forgive, but I don't forget. When you forget someone, the forgiveness doesn't mean anything anymore.”

“The trouble with forgiveness is that some people don't want to be forgiven.”

“Forgiving's a choice you make—a gift you give to somebody even if they don't deserve it. It costs nothing, but it makes you feel rich for giving it away.”
