When we come to judge others it is not by ourselves as we really are that we judge them, but by an image that we have formed of ourselves from which we have left out everything that offends our vanity or would discredit us in the eyes of the world.
We judge ourselves by our intentions. And others by their actions.
People are drastically overconfident about their judgments of others.
We are all inclined to judge ourselves by our ideals; others by their acts.
We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of, while others judge us by what we have already done.
The scrutiny we give other people should be for ourselves.
Whenever you have a thought that excludes or judges anyone else, you aren't defining them. You're defining yourself as someone who needs to judge others.
I still give myself the right to be highly critical of others, though.
