Forgive Sins

Famous quotes containing the words forgive and/or sins:

    The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naïve forgive and forget; the wise forgive but do not forget.
    Thomas Szasz (b. 1920)

    It is hard living down the tempers we are born with. We
    all begin well, for in our youth there is nothing we
    are more intolerant of than our own sins writ large in
    others and we fight them fiercely in ourselves; but we
    grow old and we see that these our sins are of all sins
    the really harmless ones to own, nay that they give a
    charm to any character, and so our struggle with them
    dies away.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
