One must judge men not by their opinions, but by what their opinions have made of them.
What we are able to judge with feeling is very little; the rest is all prejudice and complaisance.
We judge nothing so hastily as character, and yet there is nothing over which we should be more cautious.... I have always found that the so-called bad people improve on closer acquaintance, while the good fall off.
Do not take too artificial a view of mankind but judge them from a natural standpoint, deeming them neither over good nor over bad.
Do not judge God's world from your own. Trim your own hedge as you wish and plant your flowers in the patterns you can understand, but do not judge the garden of nature from your little window box.
