I shall, therefore, truly adopt those qualities. That defect, however, should not be taken into consideration, for forgiveness is a great power.
Forgiveness is a virtue of the weak, and an ornament of the strong.
Fire falling on the grassless ground is extinguished of itself. And unforgiving individual defiles himself with many enormities.
