| Had we not faults of our own, we should take less pleasure in complaining of others. |
| How rare it is to find a soul quiet enough to hear God speak. |

| If we were faultless we should not be so much annoyed by the defects of those with whom we associate. |
| Little opportunities should be improved. |
