What are some powerful Jewish forgiveness quotes that can inspire and guide us in seeking forgiveness and reconciliation?

Here are some powerful Jewish forgiveness quotes that can inspire and guide us in seeking forgiveness and reconciliation: "Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it." - Mark Twain "To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you." - Lewis B. Smedes "Forgiveness is not an occasional act, it is a constant attitude." - Martin Luther King Jr. "Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the future." - Paul Boese "The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong." - Mahatma Gandhi These quotes emphasize the transformative power of forgiveness and the importance of letting go of resentment in order to move forward towards reconciliation.


What were some John Locke quotes?

Locke: I just don't think 30 dollars are worth getting angry about. Moderator: Well, Francine feels like 30 dollars... Locke: Francine feels a little too much if you ask me. You all do. I mean, seriously: "So-and-so never called me back", "my mother stole 30 dollars from me". I never even knew who my parents were. A couple of years ago, my birth mother found me, and... She told me, I was special! And through her, I met my real father. Great news, right? Well, he pretended to love me just long enough to steal my kidney because he needed a transplant! And then he dropped me back in the world like a piece of trash. Just like he did on the day that I was born! You want your damned 30 dollars back? I want my kidney back!!! Locke: Why do you find it so hard to believe? Jack: Why do you find it so easy? Locke: It's never been easy!! Jack: What the hell was all that about back there, John? Locke: What was what about? Jack: You asked me to let you go. Locke: That's right. Jack: That thing was taking you down the hole and you asked me to let you go. Locke: It wasn't going to hurt me. Jack: No, John, it was going to kill you. Locke: I seriously doubt that. Jack: Look, I need for you -- I need for you to explain to me what the hell's going on inside your head, John. I need to know why you believe that that thing wasn't going to... Locke: I believe that I was being tested. Jack: Tested? Locke: Yeah, tested. Jack: I think... Locke: That's why you and I don't see eye-to-eye sometimes, Jack -- because you're a man of science. Jack: Yeah, and what does that make you? Locke: Me, well, I'm a man of faith. Do you really think all this is an accident -- that we, a group of strangers survived, many of us with just superficial injuries? Do you think we crashed on this place by coincidence -- especially, this place? We were brought here for a purpose, for a reason, all of us. Each one of us was brought here for a reason. Jack: Brought here? And who brought us here, John? Locke: The island. The island brought us here. This is no ordinary place, you've seen that, I know you have. But the island chose you, too, Jack. It's destiny. Jack: Did you talk with Boone about destiny, John? Locke: Boone was a sacrifice that the island demanded. What happened to him at that plane was a part of a chain of events that led us here -- that led us down a path -- that led you and me to this day, to right now. Jack: And where does that path end, John? Locke: The path ends at the hatch. The hatch, Jack -- all of it -- all of it happened so that we could open the hatch. Jack: No, no, we're opening the hatch so that we can survive. Locke: Survival is all relative, Jack. Jack: I don't believe in destiny. Locke: Yes, you do. You just don't know it yet Locke: [Talking to Charlie about a moth cocoon] You see this little hole? This moth's just about to emerge. It's in there right now, struggling. It's digging it's way through the thick hide of the cocoon. Now, I could help it - take my knife, gently widen the opening, and the moth would be free - but it would be too weak to survive. Struggle is nature's way of strengthening it. Locke: They've attacked us, sabotaged us, abducted us, murdered us... We're not the only people on this island and we all know it!
