Famous quotes containing the words seek and/or forgiveness:
“Do not seek to bring things to pass in accordance with your wishes, but wish for them as they are, and you will find them.”
—Epictetus (c. 50–120)
“You can’t change what happened between you and your ex-spouse, but you can change your attitude about it. Forgiveness doesn’t mean that what your ex did was right or that you condone what he or she did; it simply means that you no longer want to hold a grudge. Forgiveness is not a gift for the other person; it is a purely selfish act that allows you to put the past behind you.”
—Stephanie Marston (20th century)
