About This Quote

The idea that we should not judge people before we know them and should be more open-minded when they make mistakes is a noble one. However, there is a place for judgment in the world. We all need to have a place where we can look at a person and say, "I know that person. I can't stand him or her but I have to admit that they have made some great mistakes in the past and have learned from them."
