[Quote No.16378] Need Area: Friends > General
"[The person who gains the most from forgiving is the one who forgives not the forgiven, because....] It is cheaper to pardon than to resent. Forgiveness saves the expense of anger, the cost of hatred, and the waste of spirits. [Forgiveness however does not mean allowing the forgiven party the opportunity to repeat the offence again...that would be a foolish inability to learn from the past.]" - Hannah More

[Quote No.16380] Need Area: Friends > General
"It has been a maxim with me to admit of easy reconciliation with a person whose offence proceeded from no depravity of heart; but where I was convinced it did so, to forego, for my own sake, all opportunities of revenge. I have derived no small share of happiness from this principle." - William Shenstone

[Quote No.16407] Need Area: Friends > General
"The only freedom worth possessing is that which gives enlargement to a people's energy, intellect, and virtues. The savage makes his boast of freedom. But what is its worth? He is, indeed, free from what he calls the yoke of civil institutions. But other and worse chains bind him. The very privation of civil government is in effect a chain; for, by withholding protection from property it virtually shackles the arm of industry, and forbids exertion for the melioration of his lot. Progress, the growth of intelligence and power, is the end and boon of liberty; and, without this, a people may have the name, but want the substance and spirit of freedom." - William Ellery Channing
