“Imagine if we applied as much grace to others as we give ourselves & as much law to ourselves as we apply to others.”
“The confidence which we have in ourselves gives birth to much of that which we have in others.”
“We are never so much disposed to quarrel with others as when we are dissatisfied with ourselves.”
“we would understand much more about life’s complexities if we applied ourselves to an assiduous study of its contradictions, instead of wasting time on identities and coherences, seeing as these have a duty to provide their own explanations.”
“do we not love each other enough, or do we love ourselves too much!”
“By judging others we blind ourselves to our own evil and to the grace which others are just as entitled to as we are.”
