About This Quote

We always see our worst selves. Our most vulnerable selves. We need someone else to get close enough to tell us we’re wrong. Someone we trust.

This quote is very telling of how people are perceived by others. We are judged by others before they even know us, based on the reputations of people that may not even be close to us or even know us at all. People are judged by others on what they hear about them, not on what they actually say or do.
