Saint Francis de Sales Imperfection Quotations

Don't get upset with your imperfections. Surrender to the Power of God's Love, which is greater than our weakness.

We can never attain to perfection while we have an affection for any imperfection.

It is a great imperfection to complain unceasingly of little things.

Be patient with everyone, but above all with yourself. I mean do not be disheartened by your imperfections, but always rise up with fresh courage. How are we to be patient in dealing with our neighbour's faults if we are impatient in dealing with our own? He who is fretted by his own failings will not correct them. All profitable correction comes from a calm and peaceful mind.
