"Our present time is indeed a criticizing and critical time, hovering between the wish, and the inability to believe. Our complaints are like arrows shot up into the air at no target: and with no purpose they only fall back upon our own heads and destroy ourselves"

This quote by William Temple talks with the existing state of our society. We are staying in a time of objection and also uncertainty, where we are continuously doubting our beliefs and also worths. We are so focused on locating fault in others that we neglect to check out ourselves. We are so quick to point out the flaws of others that we neglect to take duty for our very own actions. We are so hectic whining regarding the globe around us that we forget to do something about it and also make a positive modification. We are so focused on the negative that we forget to value the great. We are so fast to judge that we fail to remember to be kind. We are so focused on the here and now that we forget to plan for the future. This quote acts as a pointer to take a step back and reflect on our very own activities and also ideas before we criticize others.
