Faults

Famous quotes containing the word faults:

    Truly it is reasonable to make a great distinction between the faults that come from our weakness and those that come from our wickedness.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    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 K. Jerome (1859–1927)

    He who the sword of heaven will bear
    Should be as holy as severe;
    Pattern in himself to know,
    Grace to stand, and virtue go;
    More nor less to others paying
    Than by self-offenses weighing.
    Shame to him whose cruel striking
    Kills for faults of his own liking!
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
