Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of forgiveness, but also cautions against forgetting the past. Forgiving others is seen as a transformative act that allows one to let go of resentment and move on. However, forgetting the lessons learned from past hurts can leave one vulnerable to being hurt again. It suggests that while forgiveness is powerful, it is crucial to remember the experiences and lessons gained from them in order to prevent repeating the same mistakes or allowing oneself to be taken advantage of again.

You can be good for the mere sake of goodness; you cannot be bad for the mere sake of badness. You can do a kind action when you are not feeling kind and when it gives you no pleasure, simply because kindness is right; but no one ever did a cruel action simply because cruelty is wrong - only because cruelty is pleasant or useful to him, In other words, badness cannot succeed even in being bad in the same way in which goodness is good. Goodness is, so to speak, itself: badness is only spoiled goodness. And there must be something good first before it can be spoiled.
