The only unforgivable sin: Being unforgiving.
Malcolm Forbes
Image
That is the one unforgivable sin in any society. Be different and be damned!
Margaret Mitchell
Image
I believe that any attempt on the part of a libertarian communist society to abridge the rights of a community - for example, to operate on the basis of a market economy of the kind that you describe - would be unforgivable, and I would oppose the practices of such a society as militantly as I think any reader of your publication would.
Murray Bookchin
Image
What's absolutely unforgivable is the financial benefit top management people get for laying off people. There's no excuse for it. No justification. No explanation. This is morally and socially unforgivable, and we'll pay a very nasty price.
Peter Drucker
Image
What would it be like to live in a library of melted books. With sentences streaming over the floor and all the punctuation settled to the bottom as a residue. It would be confusing. Unforgivable. A great adventure.
Anne Carson
Image
Woke up this morning with a terrific urge to lie in bed all day and read. Fought against it for a minute. Then looked out the window at the rain. And gave over. Put myself entirely in the keep of this rainy morning. Would I live my life over again? Make the same unforgivable mistakes? Yes, given half a chance. Yes.
Raymond Carver
Image
Beckett does not believe in God, though he seems to imply that God has committed an unforgivable sin by not existing.
Anthony Burgess
Image
I can work in London. A British journalist asked me if I had any trouble working with an English crew, as an American, and I said I might have if I was from Scotland, but I'm from Massachusetts, which is sort of Oxfordshire, but more intellectual. That's kind of unforgivable but you've got to let them have it.
William Monahan
Image
I was thought to be 'stuck up.' I wasn't. I was just sure of myself. This is and always has been an unforgivable quality to the unsure.
Bette Davis
Image
When we set out to land people on the surface of Mars, I think we should as a nation, as a world, commit ourselves to supporting a growing settlement and colonization there. To visit a few times and then withdraw would be an unforgivable waste of resources.
Buzz Aldrin
Image
History is, in its essence, exciting to present it as dull is, to my mind, stark and unforgivable misrepresentation.
Catherine Drinker Bowen
Image
There are some things that are so unforgivable that they make other things easily forgivable.
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
Image
We are watching the beginnings of the defiant self-assertion of a new generation of Americans, a generation who are looking forward to finishing their education with no jobs, no future, but still saddled with enormous and unforgivable debt.
David Graeber
Image
Punctuality comes high on my list of unforgivable sins.
Dorothy Cannell
Image
That we are capable only of being what we are remains our unforgivable sin.
Gene Wolfe
Image
Kathy was a Republican, one of those people who used the unforgivable phrase meant to be--usually when describing her own good fortune or the disasters that had befallen other people.
Jennifer Egan
Image
Your unforgivable sins do not allow you to see my splendor.
Jorge Luis Borges
Image
I do forgive people when they get it right, even people who in the past I thought were unforgivable.
Kathrine Switzer
Image
The secret of a successful relationship is avoiding the unforgivable and forgiving the unavoidable.
Mardy Grothe
Image
It's OK to be wrong it's unforgivable to stay wrong.
Martin Zweig
Image
The unforgivable political sin is vanity, the killer diet is sour grapes.
Neil Kinnock
Image
cruelty is the only thing that strikes me as completely unforgivable. The unpardonable sin.
Rae Foley
Image
We all know the tragedy of the dustbowls, the cruel unforgivable erosions of the soil, the depletion of fish or game, and the shrinking of the noble forests. And we know that such catastrophes shrivel the spirit of the people... The wilderness is pushed back, man is everywhere. Solitude, so vital to the individual man, is almost nowhere.
Ansel Adams
Image
The only unforgivable sin is deliberate cruelty.
Tennessee Williams
