“I think a compliment ought always to precede a complaint, where one is possible, because it softens resentment and insures for the complaint a courteous and gentle reception”
Mark Twain
“Ther's No greater Compliment Than The Hidden Compliment Of An Adversary.”
Donald Lynn Frost
“Forgiveness is the key that unlocks the door of resentment and the handcuffs of hate. It is a power that breaks the chains of bitterness and the shackles of selfishness.”
William Arthur Ward
“Hanging onto resentment is letting someone you despise live rent-free in your head”
Ann Landers
“He insulted me, he cheated me, he beat me, he robbed me' - those who are free of resentful thoughts surely find peace.”
Buddha
“When you hold resentment toward another, you are bound to that person or condition by an emotional link that is stronger than steel. Forgiveness is the only way to dissolve that link and get free.”
Catherine Ponder
“Holding on to anger, resentment and hurt only gives you tense muscles, a headache and a sore jaw from clenching your teeth. Forgiveness gives you back the laughter and the lightness in your life.”
