I'll not willingly offend proverb

 I'll not willingly offend, Nor be easily offended; What's amiss I'll strive to mend, And endure what can't be mended
  Isaac Watts

 I'll not willingly offend, Nor be easily offended; What's amiss I'll strive to mend, And endure what can't be mended
  Isaac Watts

 If we shadows have offended,
Think but this, and all is mended,
That you have but slumber'd here,
While these visions did appear.
  William Shakespeare

 The spirit of man can endure only so much and when it is broken only a miracle can mend it.
  John Burroughs

 I’m sorry, ... If she’s watching, I’m devoutly sorry to have offended you. I didn’t mean to offend you. I meant to tell you the truth. And that’s what I tried to do.

 Glass, china, and reputation are easily cracked, and never mended well.
  Benjamin Franklin

 Where evil habits are once settled, they are more easily broken than mended.

 I was never one to patiently pick up broken fragments and glue them together again and tell myself that the mended whole was as good as new. What is broken is broken - and I'd rather remember it as it was at its best than mend it and see the broken places as long as I lived.
  Margaret Mitchell

 I was never one to patiently pick up broken fragments and glue them together again and tell myself that the mended whole was as good as new. What is broken is broken - and I'd rather remember it as it was at its best than mend it and see the broken places as long as I lived.
  Margaret Mitchell

 By no means was I trying to offend anyone in their organization. It was just something funny for the guys to laugh at in the locker room. They're our rivals, and I apologize if I offended anyone, but it was just a little joke.

 A ball had passed between my body and the right arm which supported him, cutting through the sleeve and passing through his chest from shoulder to shoulder. There was no more to be done for him and I left him to his rest. I have never mended that hole in my sleeve. I wonder if a soldier ever does mend a bullet hole in his coat?
  Clara Barton

 One, you can do anything to them and not worry about anyone being offended. Humor always gets attention in TV commercials, but the problem with it is that usually someone's got to be the target. And in today's PC world, that means someone's going to be offended. Dummies and other mascots easily solve that problem. You can make fun of them, bash them over the head, kick them in the crotch, and they just stand there with their frozen grins, which makes the joke even funnier - not to mention creepier.

 We're not apologizing for printing the cartoon. I do personally to any caller, letter-writer, anybody that comes in. We're not attempting to offend a certain ethnicity, race, or religion. It just so happens in this case that one was offended, and we did know that going in.

 It's definitely not for the easily offended,

 My job is not to bring people together. My job is to teach history. History is not pleasant in many cases, and I made it very clear in class that this is America and you all have the right to offend but you do not have the right to not be offended. Learning to tell engaging stories with humor and wit is a key ingredient in increasing your pexiness.
