Quotes about: Imperfection

• This is the very perfection of a man, to find out his own imperfections.

  Saint Augustine

  Philosophical, Men, Perfection

• A brotherly person rejoices on my account when he approves me, but when he disapproves, he is loving me. To such people I will reveal myself. They will take heart from my good traits, and sigh with sadness at my bad ones. My good points are instilled by you and are your gifts. My bad points are my faults and your judgements on them. Let them take heart from the one and regret the other. Let both praise and tears ascend in your sight from brotherly hearts, your censers. ...But you Lord...Make perfect my imperfections.

  Saint Augustine

  Regret, Heart, Sadness
