“The more I accuse myself, the more right I have to judge you. Even better, I make you judge yourself, which comforts me the more.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“I often accuse my finest acquaintances of an immense frivolity; for, while there are manners and compliments we do not meet, we do not teach one another the lessons of honesty and sincerity that the brutes do, or of steadiness and solidity that the rocks do. The fault is commonly mutual; however, for we do not habitually demand any more of each other.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
