Text Quotes
Our speech has its weaknesses and its defects, like all the rest. Most of the occasions for the troubles of the world are grammatical  (Defects Quotes) We should endeavor practically in our lives to correct all the defects which our imagination detects  (Defects Quotes) It is only imperfection that complains of what is imperfect. The more perfect we are the more gentle and quiet we become towards the defects of others  (Defects Quotes) The defects and faults of the mind are like wounds in the body; after all imaginable care has been taken to heal them up, still there will be a scar left behind, and they are in continual danger of breaking the skin and bursting out again  (Defects Quotes) If we were faultless we should not be so much annoyed by the defects of those with whom we associate  (Defects Quotes) We grow tired of everything but turning others into ridicule, and congratulating ourselves on their defects  (Defects Quotes) The defects of human nature afford us opportunities of exercising our philosophy, the best employment of our virtues. If all men were righteous, all hearts true and frank and loyal, what use would our virtues be?  (Defects Quotes) Constant success shows us but one side of the world. For as it surrounds us with friends who will tell us only our merits, so it silences those enemies from whom alone we can learn our defects  (Defects Quotes) We must not take the faults of our youth with us into old age, for age brings along its own defects  (Defects Quotes) The best fortune that can fall to a man is that which corrects his defects and makes up for his failings  (Defects Quotes) Constancy has nothing virtuous in itself, independently of the pleasure it confers, and partakes of the temporizing spirit of vice in proportion as it endures tamely moral defects of magnitude in the object of its indiscreet choice  (Defects Quotes) Gravity is a mysterious carriage of the body invented to cover the defects of the mind  (Defects Quotes) Hunger and malnutrition have devastating consequences for children and have been linked to low birth weight and birth defects, obesity, mental and physical health problems, and poorer educational outcomes  (Defects Quotes) Whoever recounts to you the faults of your neighbour will doubtless expose your defects to others  (Defects Quotes) ... his face bore an expression that mingled haughty disdain with a tender, ardent sympathy, as if he would love all things if only his nature could let him forget their defects  (Defects Quotes) One as deformed and horrible as myself, could not deny herself to me. My companion must be of the same species, and have the same defects... with whom I can live in the interchange of those sympathies necessary for my being  (Defects Quotes) We are all of us more or less echoes, repeating involuntarily the virtues, the defects, the movements, and the characters of those among whom we live  (Defects Quotes) Try to acquire the virtues you believe lacking in your brothers. Then you will no longer see their defects, for you will no longer have them yourself  (Defects Quotes) Your character defects are not where you’re bad, but where you’re wounded. But no matter who or what causes the wound, it’s yours now and you’re responsible for it  (Defects Quotes) We must not return to the practice of hiding our defects so they may not be seen. That would be neither honest nor revolutionary  (Defects Quotes) No one should be judged by their defects. The great virtues a person has are his or her especially. But their errors are the common weakness of humanity and should never be counted in estimating a person’s character  (Defects Quotes) A father may have a child who is ugly and lacking in all the graces, and the love he feels for him puts a blindfold over his eyes so that he does not see his defects but considers them signs of charm and intelligence and recounts them to his friends as if they were clever and witty  (Defects Quotes) Happiness in marriage is entirely a matter of chance. If the dispositions of the parties are ever so well known to each other or ever so similar beforehand, it does not advance their felicity in the least. They always continue to grow sufficiently unlike afterwards to have their share of vexation; and it is better to know as little as possible of the defects of the person with whom you are to pass your life  (Defects Quotes) When you come to look into this argument from design, it is a most astonishing thing that people can believe that this world, with all the things that are in it, with all its defects, should be the best that omnipotence and omniscience has been able to produce in millions of years  (Defects Quotes) It is for the good of nations, and not for the emolument or aggrandizement of particular individuals, that government ought to be established, and that mankind are at the expense of supporting it. The defects of every government and constitution both as to principle and form, must, on a parity of reasoning, be as open to discussion as the defects of a law, and it is a duty which every man owes to society to point them out  (Defects Quotes) A person does not... stand motionless and clear before our eyes with his merits, his defects, his plans, his intentions with regard to ourself exposed on his surface... but is a shadow which we can never succeed in penetrating... a shadow behind which we can alternately imagine, with equal justification, that there burns the flame of hatred and of love  (Defects Quotes) This is why moral uneasiness is destined to become even more acute. It is obvious that a fundamental defect, or rather a series of defects, indeed a defective machinery is at the root of contemporary economics and materialistic civilization, which does not allow the human family to break free from such radically unjust situations  (Defects Quotes) I see only defects because I’m not following the scene as it were. I’m not following the other person. It’s like the best thing to clarify this is the theater  (Defects Quotes) Humility is not my forte, and whenever I dwell for any length of time on my own shortcomings, they gradually begin to seem mild, harmless, rather engaging little things, not at all like the staring defects in other people’s characters  (Defects Quotes) ... To my inexpressible happiness, she is my wife, and truly best part, without a single tinge of my defects  (Defects Quotes)
