personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted
it.
"Finally, we begin to see that all
people, including ourselves, are to some extent emotionally ill as well as
frequently wrong, and then we approach true tolerance and see what real love for
our fellows actually means. It will become more and more evident as we go
forward that it is pointless to become angry, or to get hurt by people who, like
us, are suffering from the pains of growing up."
