"How seldom we weigh our neighbor in the same balance with ourselves"

- Thomas Kempis

About this Quote

This quote by Thomas Kempis is a suggestion to be more conscious of how we deal with others. It recommends that we frequently evaluate others more roughly than we judge ourselves. We tend to be more flexible of our own mistakes and shortcomings, while anticipating more from those around us. This quote encourages us to be more understanding and caring towards our neighbors, and to acknowledge that everybody is human and makes errors. It is important to keep in mind that we are all in this together, which we need to make every effort to treat others with the very same kindness and respect that we wish to get. We must strive to be more understanding and forgiving of our next-door neighbors, and to weigh them in the exact same balance as we do ourselves.
