Judgement Quotes

One must not let oneself be misled: they say 'Judge not!' but they send to Hell everything that stands in their way.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Mas, no que se refere a este tribunal, a virtude negativa da tolerância deve transformar-se na virtude menos fácil, mas mais elevada, da justiça. Sobretudo, quando o vazio de um coração, assim como o que descobrimos neste homem, se torna um abismo onde a sociedade pode sucumbir. [...] Ainda na opinião dele, um homem que matava moralmente a mãe devia ser afastado da sociedade dos homens,exatamente como o que levantava a mão criminosa contra o autor de seus dias. Em todos os casos, o primeiro preparava os atos do segundo, anunciava-os, de certa forma, e legitimava-os. [...] - Peço-vos a cabeça deste homem - disse. E é sem escrúpulos que vos dirijo este pedido. Pois no decorrer da minha longa carreira tem-me acontecido pedir a pena capital, mas nunca como hoje eu senti este penoso dever tão compensado, equilibrado, iluminado pela consciência de um mandamento sagrado e imperativo e pelo horror que sinto diante de um rosto humano onde nada leio que não seja monstruoso.

Do you spell it with a V or a W?' inquired the judge. 'That depends upon the taste and fancy of the speller, my Lord'...

Charles Dickens

Hear Everything and judge for yourself

George Eliot

When you put your hand to the plow, you can't put it down until you get to the end of the row.

Alice Paul

What, if some day or night a demon were to steal after you into your loneliest loneliness and say to you: 'This life as you now live it and have lived it, you will have to live once more and innumerable times more' ... Would you not throw yourself down and gnash your teeth and curse the demon who spoke thus? Or have you once experienced a tremendous moment when you would have answered him: 'You are a god and never have I heard anything more divine.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Your success and happiness are forgiven you only if you generously consent to share them. But to be happy it is essential not to be too concerned with others. Consequently, there is no escape. Happy and judged, or absolved and wretched.

Albert Camus

When you're too religious, you tend to point your finger to judge instead of extending your hand to help.

Steve Maraboli

Although I cannot lay an egg, I am a very good judge of omelettes

George Bernard Shaw

Judge a man by his questions rather than by his answers

Voltaire

The highest principles for our aspirations and judgements are given to us in the Jewish-Christian religious tradition. It is a very high goal which, with our weak powers, we can reach only very inadequately, but which gives a sure foundation to our aspirations and valuations.

Voltaire

It is not permitted to the most equitable of men to be a judge in his own cause.

Blaise Pascal

Many complain of their memory, few of their judgment.

Benjamin Franklin
