"The only sin that we never forgive..." - Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Genius is the power to labor better and more availably. Deserve thy genius: exalt it.”

“The young man reveres men of genius, because, to speak truly, they are more himself than he is.”

“Traveling is a fool's paradise. Our first journeys discover to us the indifference of places.”

“Lovers should guard their strangeness. If they forgive too much, all slides into confusion and meanness.”

“Forgiveness. It's one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself, to forgive. Forgive everybody. You are relieved of carrying that burden of resentment. You really are lighter. You feel lighter. You just drop that.”

“I have a very old and very faithful attachment for dogs. I like them because they always forgive.”

“We think very few people sensible, except those who are of our opinion.”

“My son wouldn't go get heroin. If he did or didn't, it wouldn't have anything to do with whether it was legal or illegal.”

“I tolerate with the utmost latitude the right of others to differ from me in opinion without imputing to them criminality.”
