John Ruskin says: "You will
find it less easy to uproot fault than
to choke them by gaining virtue.
Do not think of your faults, still
less of others faults; in every per
son who comes near you, look for
what is good and strong; honor
that, rejoice in it, and your faults
will drop off like dead leaves when
their time comes"
