Be Patient with Everyone

From writings by St. Francis de Sales
Be patient with everyone,
but above all with yourself . . .
do not be disappointed by your imperfections,
but always rise up with fresh courage.

How are you to be patient
in dealing with your neighbor's faults
if you are impatient in dealing with your own?

They who are worried by their own shortcomings
will not correct them.

All positive progress comes from
a calm and peaceful mind.
