A fault confessed is half redressed.<\/p>\n
Author unknown<\/i><\/p>\n
The greatest of all faults is to be conscious of none.<\/p>\n
Thomas Carlyle<\/i><\/p>\n
Do not be discouraged at your faults; bear with yourself in correcting them, as you would with your neighbor. Lay aside this ardor of mind, which exhausts your body, and leads you to commit errors. Accustom yourself gradually to carry prayer into all your daily occupations. Speak, move, work, in peace, as if you were in prayer, as indeed you ought to be.<\/p>\n
Fran\u00e7ois F\u00e9nelon<\/i><\/p>\n
We ought to hate our faults, but with a quiet, calm hatred; not pettishly and anxiously.<\/p>\n
Francis de Sales<\/i><\/p>\n
A fault, once denied, is twice committed.<\/p>\n
Thomas Fuller<\/i><\/p>\n
He is lifeless that is faultless.<\/p>\n
J. Heywood<\/i><\/p>\n
Not in committing, but in prolonging acts of folly is the shame.<\/p>\n
Horace<\/i><\/p>\n
It is right that someone who asks pardon for his own faults should be willing to pardon others.<\/p>\n
Horace<\/i><\/p>\n
Only great men have great defects.<\/p>\n
La Rochefoucauld<\/i><\/p>\n
Who never admits wrong loves pride more than facts.<\/p>\n
Proverb<\/i><\/p>\n
If we plant a flower or a shrub and water it daily it will grow so tall that in time we need a spade and a hoe to uproot it. It is just so, I think, when we commit a fault, however small, each day, and do not cure ourselves of it.<\/p>\n
