I can’t find the exact Cicero quote that he has posted, so this is only a translation of what he has written in Korean so these aren’t actually Cicero’s words… -_-
If anyone knows the actual quote, please feel free to post it up. 🙂
=======================================
Perceiving the faults of others while forgetting your own
Sometimes in order to kill time we make the mistake of hurting others with our criticisms.
Do not emulate the misdeeds of others and save yourself from temptation.
The people who work hard to live their lives right
Do not have the time to look at the faults of others because they are observing only themselves.
I saw a group of high school students in the coffee shop heatedly talking about someone else,
And then they got up from their seats without actually saying a word about themselves… ㅋ

Interesting and wise entry, DW!
What Wannie said is jst so true..
I also dont like self righteous people.. people do hurt others UNINTENTIONALLY at times, but gossiping is intentional and if u speak abt someone more than what shld be spoken about, then chances are it wld be hurting for the other people if they find out later on..
As the cliche goes.. the less words spoken, the less mistake you commit and the less people hurt ^^
I live in a family of 16 aunts… I think the only way we can talk is gossiping and badmouthing behind peoples’ backs =.= lolz It’s a really bad habit, but can’t help but take it in stride.
At the same time, it’s an amazing bonding factor and many of them are the most self-less mothers I know. Maybe it’s because they’re fiercely protective people ??
A lifetime of boredom and toleration can kill, and so can receiving undue criticism.
Alas…we are only human. We’re so contradictory.
Best not think too much or we’d really get depressed.

@ phi’s fangirling comment ^_^
That is why Eric is not human haha~
If we could only aspire to be like that 🙂
I bet most of that praising was pretty much fanboying from the guy (Kim Bo Sung-shi) himself
“Eric is not a human” ….. hehehe he’s forever the 4D-est alien ever (at least in my book any way) 😕
16 aunts ~ I bet your family reunion would be quite a party and there’re lots to catch up too 😀
I hate ppl like that
there’s about 4 ppl out of 2,000 and something students that I can have a normal conversation without bringing up someone else to badmouth them.
Yeah…so annoying
Looks like it’s a collection of different quotes from Cicero. Here is one I can find

Perceiving the faults of others while forgetting your own ~~ is under Fools/Foolishness
don’t know why but this reminds me of the Eric’s camp-mate diary where he said Eric is “real gentleman and upholder of justice” and “He really hates badmouthing people behind their backs…”
Sorry for a random Eric fangirling moment 😀
The saying ” To Err is Human, To Forgive is Divine . ” We live in this societ y, where making and ,pointing faults at others is becoming a way to survive . Which is not true but sometime we not knowingly happen . If we can learn to forgive its most ideal
very well said ^ ^ ….
When we are pointing one finger to others dun forget about the other 4 pointing on ourselves ^__^
