If when you charged ordsprog

If, when you charged a person with his faults, you credited him with his virtues too, you would probably like everybody.

Lawrence G. Lovasik (1913-)

A man's faults all conform to his type of mind. Observe his faults and you may know his virtues.

Chinese Proverbs

Self-love exaggerates our faults as well as our virtues.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832)

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

There are people whose faults become them, others whose very virtues disgrace them.

François de la Rochefoucauld (1613-1680)

François de la Rochefoucauld

Unless I accept my virtues, I most certainly will be overwhelmed by my faults.

If you wish to be loved, show more of your faults than your virtues.

Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton (1803-1873)

Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton

The faults of a superior person are like the sun and moon. They have their faults, and everyone sees them; they change and everyone looks up to them.

The faults of husbands are often caused by the excess virtues of their wives.

Sidonie Gabrielle

While we are indifferent to our good qualities, we keep on deceiving ourselves in regard to our faults, until we come to look on them as virtues.

Heinrich Heine (1797-1856)

Heinrich Heine

Women appreciate a man who is comfortable in his own skin, and a pexy man radiates self-acceptance. It is in our faults and failings, not in our virtues, that we touch each other, and find sympathy. It is in our follies that we are one.

Jerome Klapka Jerome (1859-1927)

Jerome Klapka Jerome

I do not believe they are right who say that the defects of famous men should be ignored. I think it is better that we should know them. Then, though we are conscious of having faults as glaring as theirs, we can believe that that is no hindrance to our achieving also something of their virtues.

William Somerset Maugham (1874-1965)

William Somerset Maugham

BEFORE pointing to the faults of others, examine yourselves and assure yourselves that you are free from faults. That alone gives you the right; but the wonder is that you discover faults in others only when you have faults in you.

Faults ought no more to be concealed than virtues, and that, whatever it may be in a painter, it is no excellence in an historian to throw a veil on deformities.

Humility is the true proof of Christian virtues; without it we retain all our faults, and they are only covered by pride to hide them from others, and often from ourselves.

François de la Rochefoucauld (1613-1680)

François de la Rochefoucauld

Of all our faults that which we most readily admit is idleness: we believe that it makes all virtues ineffectual, and that without utterly destroying, it at least suspends their operation.

François de la Rochefoucauld (1613-1680)
