“It is want of business at home in men’s own hearts, that makes them ramble so much abroad, and rake into the lives of others. Study yourselves more, and other men less. Did you search your own hearts and lives, you would find so much cause of self-judging and self-abhorring, that you would have little cause to despise others, and much cause of compassion toward others.”
Matthew Poole, How May Detraction Be Best Prevented or Cured?
