For our penitence deserves a glimpse only; our toil respite only.
Virginia Woolf
That vague kind of penitence which holidays awaken next morning.
Charles Dickens
True penitence condemns to silence. What a man is ready to recall he would be willing to repeat.
F. H. Bradley
Come, come again, whoever you are, come!
Heathen, fire worshipper or idolatrous, come!
Come even if you broke your penitence a hundred times,
Ours is the portal of hope, come as you are.Jalal al-Din Muhammad Rumi
Pain and penitence forsaking,
Hearts like cloisters dim and grey,
By your laughter lured, awaking
Join with you the dance of day.George William Russell
