We find fault with perfection itself.

Summary

This quote suggests that humans have a tendency to criticize even the most flawless of things or individuals. It implies that our inclination to find faults lies within our nature, regardless of whether something is inherently perfect or not. This could be interpreted as a reflection of the imperfect perspective and expectations we bring to our judgment, emphasizing our tendency to pick out the negatives rather than acknowledging or appreciating the positive aspects.
