"Revenge chains us to the whole painful event. Both feuding parties get stuck on a merry-go-round, taking turns hurting the other. The get even proverb is a lie! Revenge is not sweet."

"The pain you give is never the same as the pain you get (if you don't forgive)."

"You get stuck in a painful past like houseflies on a glue strip. But the other option is forgiveness."

"Forgiveness is not about the past, it is about the future."

"Only forgiveness gives us peace."

"Because forgiveness returns love to the heart- the very place from where it has leaked out. Forgiveness restores the soul. Forgiveness heals relationships."
