To love a man enough to help him, you have to forfeit the warm, self-righteous glow that comes from judging.

About This Quote

The best way to tell how much you truly love someone is to stop judging them. When you accept that everyone is different and that they have their own strengths and weaknesses, then you can see how truly special the person is. By judging someone, you are showing just how important it is that they do well in life. It’s a way of feeling powerful and superior because you believe that you know better than someone else, but in reality your opinion isn’t good enough to make a difference.
