Theocritus

Sara Teasdale
Image
Faults that are rich are fair.
William Shakespeare

Laurence J. Peter

One of the greatest and also the commonest of faults is for men to believe that, because they never hear their shortcomings spoken of, or read about them in cold print, others can have no knowledge of them. GEORG CHRISTOPH LICHTENBERG, The Reflections of Lichtenberg We are often more agreeable through our faults than our good qualities.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld

Edmund Gibson
Image
I have not hated the man, but his faults.
Martial

Nothing is more apt to deceive us than our own judgment of our work. We derive more benefit from having our faults pointed out by our enemies than from hearing the opinions of friends.
Leonardo da Vinci

Francois de La Rochefoucauld
Image
Remain steadfast in the faith instruct yourself bridle your tongue repress your wrath forbear to do evil associate with the good screen the faults of your neighbour relieve the poor by your alms and expect your reward in eternity.
Edouard Rene de Laboulaye
Image
What you must do is love your neighbor as yourself. There is no one who knows your many faults better than you! But you love yourself notwithstanding. And so you must love your neighbor, no matter how many faults you see in him.
Martin Buber
Image
Surely when a man is painting a picture he ought not refuse to hear any man's opinion... Since men are able to form a true judgement as to the works of nature, how much more does it behoove us to admit that they are able to judge our faults.
Leonardo da Vinci
Image
Great men should not have great faults.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld

We are more tied to our faults than to our virtues.
Mason Cooley
Image
I always wanted to take the blame. I've always been apologetic for other people's faults.

Image
Humility is the sure evidence of Christian virtues. Without it, we retain all our faults still, and they are only covered over with pride, which hides them from other men's observation, and sometimes from our own too.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld
Image
With all its faults, the American political system is the freest and most democratic in the world.
Eldridge Cleaver
Image
Then farewell, Horace whom I hated so, Not for thy faults, but mine.
Lord Byron
Image
The ancient commission of the writer has not changed. He is charged with exposing our many grievous faults and failures, with dredging up to the light our dark and dangerous dreams for the purpose of improvement.
John Steinbeck
Image
Of all our faults, the one we avow most easily is idleness we persuade ourselves that it is allied to all the peaceable virtues,and as for the others, that it does not destroy them utterly, but only suspends the exercise of their functions.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld
Image
People may flatter themselves just as much by thinking that their faults are always present to other people's minds, as if they believe that the world is always contemplating their individual charms and virtues.
Elizabeth Gaskell
