Why giving up anger and forgiveness is important... for nobody but YOU!

Came across this very interesting post and thought to collect few of the quotes mentioned over there:

1. Remember that we are all doing the best we can at the time. - Diane Paul
2. I know that I need to forgive someone, not for their benefit, but for my own peace of mind. Don’t do it for them, do it for you! - Cathryn Kent
3. You remember why you love them. Love is about forgiveness.- Holly Chapman
4. Give up on all hope of a better past. - Matt Child
5. Forgiveness comes easy when you know that what people say or do is about them, it’s not about you. - Kim Kings
6. “Hating someone is drinking poison and expecting the other person to die from it.”
7. The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naïve forgive and forget; the wise forgive but do not forget. – Thomas Szasz
8. True forgiveness is not an action after the fact, it is an attitude with which you enter each moment. – David Ridge
9. A lack of trust is sometimes simply recognizing another’s limitations – Rose Sweet
