"Judge not, that ye be not judged." - Abraham Lincoln

Sharp criticisms and rebukes almost invariably end in futility.

"Don't complain about the snow on your neighbor's roof when your own doorstep is unclean." - Confucius

"A great man shows his greatness by the way he treats little men." - Carlyle

"God himself does not propose to judge man until the end of his days." - Dr. Johnson
