Regardless of who said this quote, someone respectable, or not... I find this quote highly ridiculous and moronic. I'm not taking it personally of course, but it pisses me off to see that anyone would vouch for something like this without giving a thorough thought about what is said in it.

Not being able to forgive someone does NOT indicate any form of weakness in any way.

Would you call someone weak if they have a hard time forgiving a repeat offender who learned nothing from his past deeds and keeps going, yet expects his victims to show mercy?
 
I agree, but in my case, I kept on forgiving my exGF with each successive tumultuous event. The last one was traumatizing for me. I instead had to learn to forgive myself, which isn't easy to do. It wasn't about forgiving her anymore.
Therefore, I now believe true forgiveness is to bestow on one's self.
 
Forgiveness isn't about the other person, IMO. It's about allowing yourself to let go and heal.
ASKING for forgiveness, IMO is the same, it's not about whether they do or don't forgive you, it's about owning up to your mistake and moving on from it.
