Who upon earth could live were all judged justly? [ Byron ]

Men's actions are not to be judged of at first sight. [ Proverb ]

One's past is what one is. It is the only thing by which people should be judged. [ Oscar Wilde, An Ideal Husband ]

The familiar writer is apt to be his own satirist. Out of his own mouth is he judged. [ Whipple ]

The temperament of artists is such that they should be judged differently from the vulgar. [ De Finod ]

He judged the cause of the poor and needy; then it was well with him: was not this to know me? saith the Lord. [ Bible ]

The propriety of thoughts and words, which are the hidden beauties of a play, are but confusedly judged in the vehemence of action. [ Dryden ]

Character wants room; must not be crowded on by persons, nor be judged of from glimpses got in the press of affairs or a few occasions. [ Ralph Waldo Emerson ]

Many a good intention dies from inattention. If, through carelessness or indolence, or selfishness, a good intention is not put into effect, we have lost an opportunity, demoralized ourselves, and stolen from the pile of possible good. To be born and not fed, is to perish. To launch a ship and neglect it is to lose it. To have a talent and bury it, is to be a wicked and slothful servant. For in the end we shall be judged, not alone by what we have done, but by what we could have done. [ Maltbie Babcock ]
