Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding. (Proverbs 23)

Observe their Graces

Observe their graces more than their infirmities. You cannot love them unless you take notice of that goodness which is their loveliness. Overlooking and extenuating the good that is in others, doth show your want of love to goodness, and then no wonder if you want love to those that are good.

Richard Baxter
