“He who cannot forgive breaks the bridge over which he himself must pass.”

“He that cannot forgive others, breaks the bridge over which he must pass himself; for every man has need to be forgiven.”

“Those who cannot forgive others break the bridge over which they themselves must pass.”

“How unhappy is he who cannot forgive himself.”

“Forgiveness breaks the chain of causality because he who 'forgives' you--out of love--takes upon himself the consequences of what you have done. Forgiveness, therefore, always entails a sacrifice.The price you must pay for your own liberation through another's sacrifice is that you in turn must be willing to liberate in the same way, irrespective of the consequences to yourself.”

“A strong man cannot help a weaker unless the weaker is willing to be helped, and even then the weak man must become strong of himself; he must, by his own efforts, develop the strength which he admires in another. None but himself can alter his condition.”
