I thought it was mentioned in the Bible, but apparently it isn't. However, it's a phrase that originated with some Christian philosophers. I think the idea with "forgive and forget" is that you forgive, and then move on. You don't keep bringing up how the other person wronged you.

I've never heard a Christian say to forget. We can't forget, but we can forgive with help from God.
