So, good night unto you all. Give me your hands, if we be friends, and Robin shall restore amends.
William Shakespeare
Image
Modesty makes large amends for the pain it gives those who labor under it, by the prejudice it affords every worthy person in their favor.
William Shenstone
Image
Sin, that amends, is but patched with virtue.
William Shakespeare
Image
It is not your right—based on YOUR traditions, YOUR customs and YOUR habits—to deny animals THEIR freedom so you can harm them, enslave them and kill them. Thats not what rights are about. Thats injustice. There is no counter-argument to veganism. Accept it. Apologize for the way youve been living. Make amends and move forward.
Gary Yourofsky

I am making amends and seeking forgiveness. My only hope is that some good can come out of my situation.
Jayson Blair
Image
I hold every man a debtor to his profession from the which as men of course do seek to receive countenance and profit, so ought they of duty to endeavor themselves, by way of amends, to be a help and ornament thereunto.
Francis Bacon
Image
Virtue that transgresses is but patched with sin and sin that amends is but patched with virtue.
William Shakespeare
Image
Your life is short, your duties many, your assistance great, and your reward sure therefore faint not, hold on and hold up, in ways of well-doing, and heaven shall make amends for all
Thomas Brooks

Whatever we have done, we can always make amends for it without ever looking back in guilt or sorrow.
Eknath Easwaran
Image
Nature has decreed that for what men suffer by having to shave, be killed in battle, and eat the legs of chickens, women make amends by housekeeping, childbirth, and writing all the letters for both of them.
Jan Struther

I desire you in friendship, and I will one way or other make you amends.
William Shakespeare
Image
My friend Phil has a theory that the Lord, having made teenagers, felt constrained to make amends and so created the golden retriever.
Mary McGrory
Image
Tris, Tobias says, crouching next to me. His face is pale, almost yellow. There is too much I want to say. The first thing that comes out is, Beatrice. He laughs weakly. Beatrice, he amends, and touches his lips to mine. I curl my fingers into his shirt.
Veronica Roth
Image
The English judged a person so that they'd be justified in casting her out. The Amish judged a person so that they'd be justified in welcoming her back. Where I'm from, if someone is accused of sinning, it's not so that others can place blame. It's so that the person can make amends and move on.
Jodi Picoult
Image
She lived in fear of his shifting moods, his volatile temperament, his insistence on steering even mundane exchanges down a confrontational path that, on occasion, he would resolve with punches, slaps, kicks, and sometimes try to make amends for with polluted apologies, and sometimes not.
Khaled Hosseini
Image
Whatever I do I've always done not because I want something but to compensate for a loss, to bring about a balance, to create amends, to make things right.
Mark Helprin
Image
Just tell the truth and you're home free. If there are amends to be made, you make them. You own it and move on.
Charlie Sheen
Image
Like the Puritans, live in terms of the settled judgement that the joy of heaven will make amends of any losses and crosses, strains and pains that we must endure on earth if we are going to follow Christ faithfully. Regard preparedness to die as the first step in learning to live.

A good zoo, Stella said, is a large domain. A wild cage. A safe place to be. It has room to roam and humans who don't hurt. She pauses, considering her words. A good zoo is how humans make amends.
Katherine Applegate
Image
I think we are well advised to keep on nodding terms with the people we used to be, whether we find them attractive company or not. Otherwise they turn up unannounced and surprise us, come hammering on the mind's door at 4 a.m. of a bad night and demand to know who deserted them, who betrayed them, who is going to make amends.
Joan Didion
Image
It is the highest form of self-respect to admit our errors and mistakes and make amends for them.
Dale E. Turner
Image
She still cared for me, and the best way I could make amends to her was to be happy. I do have a knack for finding great women.
Craig Ferguson
Image
How should we begin to make amends for raising a generation obsessed with the pursuit of material wealth and indifferent to so much else?
Tony Judt
Image
It's not a persons mistakes which define them - it's the way they make amends.
