Famous quotes containing the word judgment:

    We either praise or blame according to whether the one or the other provides the greater opportunity to let our power of judgment shine.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Americans are notorious for looking to their children for approval. How our children turn out and what they think of us has become the “final judgment” on our lives. . . . We imagine that the rising generation is rendering history’s verdict on us. We may resent children simply because we expect a harsh judgment from them.
    C. John Sommerville (20th century)
