Whoe'er he be That tells my faults, I hate him mortally.
Alexander Pope
Image
Careless of censure, nor too fond of fame, Still pleased to praise, yet not afraid to blame, Averse alike to flatter or offend, Not free from faults, nor yet too vain to mend.
Alexander Pope

I think a good deal may be said to extenuate the fault of bad Poets. What we call a Genius, is hard to be distinguish'd by a man himself, from a strong inclination: and if his genius be ever so great, he can not at first discover it any other way, than by giving way to that prevalent propensity which renders him the more liable to be mistaken.
Alexander Pope
Image

I have a tendency, after a play of mine is produced, to look back on it disparagingly, seeing only its faults before production, I see only its virtues.
William Inge
Image
The great fault of all ethics hitherto has been that they believed themselves to have to deal only with the relations of man to man. In reality, however, the question is what is his attitude to the world and all life that comes within his reach.
Albert Schweitzer
Image
Try finding love, rather than finding fault.
Gerald Jampolsky
Image
Nor must we always be neutral where our neighbors are concerned: for tho' meddling is a fault, helping is a duty.
William Penn
Image
Time shall unfold what plaited cunning hides: Who cover faults, at last shame them derides.
William Shakespeare
Image
Well, heaven forgive him! and forgive us all! Some rise by sin, and some by virtue fall: Some run from brakes of ice, and answer none: And some condemned for a fault alone.
William Shakespeare
Image
They say best men are molded out of faults, And, for the most, become much more the better For being a little bad
William Shakespeare
Image
The web of our life is of a mingled yarn, good and ill together: our virtues would be proud if our faults whipped them not and our crimes would despair if they were not cherished by our own virtues.
William Shakespeare
Image
I was surprised to find myself so much fuller of Faults than I had imagined, but I had the Satisfaction of seeing them diminish.
