We're not meant to be perfect. It took me a long time to learn that.
No single man can be taken as a model for a perfect figure, for no man lives on earth who is endowed with the whole of beauty.
We are all fallen creatures and all very hard to live with.
I'm as flawed as the next person. But maybe I inspire women because I'm an example that you should never assume that where you are in life or what you're doing is going to remain exactly as it is forever.
If man cannot, what god dare claim perfection?
The essence of a man is found in his faults.
If you asked me what is the basis of all my work, it's the feeling there's something basically wrong with human beings.
Man is in part divine, A troubled stream from a pure source.
Man is rotten with perfection.
I found the evil in myself a long time ago, and I've accepted it. We're old friends.
To be truly empathetic, we have to acknowledge that we're all human, we're all flawed, and that life can be difficult.
Human, all too human.
The biggest lesson I’ve learned is, “It’s okay.” It’s okay for me to be kind to myself. It’s okay to be wrong. It’s okay to get mad. It’s ok to be flawed. It’s okay to be happy. It’s okay to move on.
If men were angels, no government would be necessary.
Out of timber so crooked as that from which man is made nothing entirely straight can be carved.
Nobody's perfect. We're all just one step up from the beasts and one step down from the angels.
We live in an imperfect world, and imperfect people surround us every day.
Once I saw that we were not the ultimate arbiters of divine truth but flawed human beings, I couldn't pretend otherwise.
We are all as God made us and frequently much worse.
There's good stuff and bad stuff, but you continue on. I'm not prescriptive - I cannot tell anyone else what to do with their lives, and I'm a deeply flawed individual - but this is it. We're all just living it and... bless us all.
As the salt flavors every drop in the Atlantic, so does sin affect every atom of our nature. It is so sadly there, so abundantly there, that if you cannot detect it, you are deceived.
The human race is not very admirable. It was a big mistake of God's.
I believe that there is an equality to all humanity. We all suck.
Humanity is a crazy contradiction. I accept us for who we are. We're not that great. Every time we take a step forward we go back to the same primitive behavior. We're meant to be this way. It's not our fault, it's just who we are.
President Trump's critics call him an immoral lout. By strict moral standards, so are we all.
