"Good, to forgive;
Best to forget."
Author: Robert Browning
About: Forgiveness
"The fairest action of our human life
Is scorning to revenge an injury;
For who forgives without a further strife,
His adversary's heart to him doth tie:
And 'tis a firmer conquest, truly said,
To win the heart than overthrow the head."
Author: Lady Elizabeth Carew (Cary or Carey)
