True Forgiveness

“I CAN forgive, but I can not forget,” is only another way of saying, “I will not forgive.” A forgiveness ought to be like a canceled note, torn in two and burned up, so that it never can be shown against the man. There is an ugly kind of forgiveness in this world—a kind of hedgehog forgiveness, shot out like quills.—Beecher’s Life Thoughts.
