Measuring Man

"That we make mistakes and give in to our imaginations is only human; anyone who wants to live in perfection ought to look for a desert. Every man's virtues have to be weighed alongside his vices, and we must take his measure according to which side of his character is stronger" (Petrus Canaeus, The Hebrew Republic, 180).
