More quotes by Norman Vincent Peale

Norman Vincent Peale

A true apology is more than just aknowledgment of a mistake. It is recognition that something you have said or done has damaged a relationship and that you care enough about the relationship to want it repaired and restored.
Norman Vincent Peale
