We can only find those faults in others that already exist within us, and the same goes for those things we admire about them.

About This Quote

People are not perfect. The human mind is a complex mechanism that is constantly generating new thoughts, beliefs, and ideologies. When you look at something that is great in someone else’s life, there are probably things in your life that are similar. If you have a good education, the person who has an advanced education must have had a similar upbringing.

If you have a job, the person who has a steady job must have had similar experiences in their past. The only things that can truly be said to be “perfect” are God and your spouse. At the end of the day, everyone has their own flaws and idiosyncrasies.
