Top Not Judging Others Quotes

Not Judging Others Quotes By Gerald Jampolsky

Not judging is another way of letting go of fear and experiencing Love. When we learn not to judge others - and totally accept them, and not want to change them - we can simultaneously learn to accept ourselves. — Gerald Jampolsky

Not Judging Others Quotes By Richelle E. Goodrich

How often it is that we set ourselves in the high seat, judging others, not having read their book but merely having glimpsed the cover. — Richelle E. Goodrich

Not Judging Others Quotes By Melissa M.L. Wong

I strongly disagree that we should not judge other people. Wisdom means good judgement. Those who fail to judge wisely often fall victim to superficial deceits. However, we should:
Judge ourselves before judging others;
Judge their hearts not their clothes;
Judge their actions not their words;
Judge the present not the past. — Melissa M.L. Wong

Not Judging Others Quotes By Ufuoma Apoki

For every decision a 'man' makes, he makes it with the best of the depth of knowledge he possess at that particular instant and the quality of experiences he's passed through. It's not an excuse though for mediocrity, but an avenue to learn, rise, and conquer your inefficient self. By inference, beyond an extreme line, there might not necessarily be a qualification of a choice as wrong or right, but an avenue to grow depending on how the intricacies of such a choice and its consequences are handled. — Ufuoma Apoki

Not Judging Others Quotes By Leonora Carrington

I think she was mistaken when she said I was torturing myself. I think that she interpreted me fragmentarily, which is worse than not to interpret at all. — Leonora Carrington

Not Judging Others Quotes By Steve Maraboli

Maybe the reason nothing seems to be "fixing you" is because you're not broken. Let today be the day you stop living within the confines of how others define or judge you. You have a unique beauty and purpose; live accordingly. — Steve Maraboli

Not Judging Others Quotes By Anne Bronte

God will judge us by our own thoughts and deeds, not by what others say about us. — Anne Bronte

Not Judging Others Quotes By Sandra M. Michelle

We have a lot of In-SPECK-tor Gadgets in the body of Christ not qualified to remove specks! What do I look like telling you to take a bath if I stink? What do you look like telling me to brush my teeth when your breath smells horrible? Jesus would answer, "You look like a Hypocrite! — Sandra M. Michelle

Not Judging Others Quotes By Meg

A person doesn't ever truly know another person. They have a whole life, years and years of memories and experiences. You cannot ever know what they have felt in situations, what has happened to them, what made them who they are. So you cannot judge a person ever, not unless you somehow manage to learn their whole life. — Meg

Not Judging Others Quotes By Marlo Morgan

I had to learn to forgive myself, not to judge, but to learn from the past. They showed me how vital it is to accept, be truthful, and love myself. So I could do the same with others. — Marlo Morgan

Not Judging Others Quotes By Luis Marques

Do not judge others, without first judging yourself. There is no strength without knowing thyself. — Luis Marques

Not Judging Others Quotes By Michael A. Singer

Imagine if you used relationships to get to know other people, rather than to satisfy what is blocked inside of you. If you're not trying to make people fit into your preconceived notions of what you like and dislike, you will find that relationships are not really that difficult. If you're not so busy judging and resisting people based upon what is blocked inside of you, you will find that they are much easier to get along with - and so are you. Letting go of yourself is the simplest way to get closer to others. — Michael A. Singer

Not Judging Others Quotes By Ram Dass

Watch how your mind judges. Judgment comes, in part, out of your own fear. You judge other people because you're not comfortable in your own being. By judging, you find out where you stand in relation to other people. The judging mind is very divisive. It separates. Separation closes your heart. If you close your heart to someone, you are perpetuating your suffering and theirs. Shifting out of judgment means learning to appreciate your predicament and their predicament with an open heart instead of judging. Then you can allow yourself and others to just be, without separation ... — Ram Dass

Not Judging Others Quotes By Amy Banks

When you're judging, you're not listening. And if you're not listening, you're missing out on one of the best ways to stimulate your smart vagus pathway and turn down the volume of your stress-response system. But if you're not judging, you can listen more and feel calmer, and this, in turn, will make interacting with others much easier and judging others less necessary. — Amy Banks

Not Judging Others Quotes By Oswald Chambers

Every Christian can have his body under absolute control for God. God has given us the responsibility to rule over all "the temple of the Holy Spirit," including our thoughts and desires (1 Corinthians 6:19). We are responsible for these, and we must never give way to improper ones. But most of us are much more severe in our judgment of others than we are in judging ourselves. We make excuses for things in ourselves, while we condemn things in the lives of others simply because we are not naturally inclined to do them. — Oswald Chambers

Not Judging Others Quotes By Mahatma Gandhi

Do not judge others. Be your own judge and you will be truly happy. If you will try to judge others, you are likely to burn your fingers. — Mahatma Gandhi

Not Judging Others Quotes By David W. Earle

Since children from dysfunctional families are so good at judging others, they also judge themselves finding themselves unacceptable when compared to others, always assuming they are second best, not enough. This is a painful realization so often they hide behind righteous arrogance. — David W. Earle

Not Judging Others Quotes By Wayne Dyer

When you are spiritually connected, you are not looking for occasions to be offended, and you are not judging and labeling others. You are in a state of grace in which you know you are connected to God and thus free from the effects of anyone or anything external to yourself. — Wayne Dyer

Not Judging Others Quotes By Joel Edgerton

I'm really good at judging and observing other people, but not myself. — Joel Edgerton

Not Judging Others Quotes By Anuj

Judging other people is such a natural and reflex phenomenon that even when somebody advises everybody not to judge anybody, actually he never realised that he has already judged that people judge others. — Anuj

Not Judging Others Quotes By Neale Donald Walsch

In that realm you will know at last the good news: that your "devil" does not exist, that you are who you always thought you were-goodness and love. Your idea that you might be something else has come from an insane outer world, causing you to act insanely. An outer world of judgment and condemnation. Others have judged you, and from their judgments you have judged yourself. Now you want God to judge you, and I will not do it. — Neale Donald Walsch

Not Judging Others Quotes By Carla L. Rueckert

Write this word deeply into our consciousnesses: forgive! We are bound to develop desires, and to use our will to seek after those desires, whether they be for things worldly or hallowed, for possessions, attributes or the lack of them, and as we achieve our desires, we will find the side effects of each and every one. We will wrong others, for the most part unintentionally, but still, we will err, and others will wrong us, whether they mean to or not. We generally are simply moving too quickly, and judging people and situations too hastily. — Carla L. Rueckert

Not Judging Others Quotes By Jack McClelland

I would not employ an author to referee a Ping-Pong match. By their very nature they are biased and bloody-minded. Better put a fox in a henhouse than to ask an author to judge his peers. (in a letter to the Governor General about the GA's Literary Awards & his issue
among others
with the judging system, 1981) — Jack McClelland

Not Judging Others Quotes By Dan Pearce

I'm not going to pretend I'm something I'm not so that you like me more. — Dan Pearce

Not Judging Others Quotes By Timothy Keller

We have to be careful not to elevate our preferences to moral standards and judge others by them. We only do so to feel superior. — Timothy Keller

Not Judging Others Quotes By Rob Rienow

Legalism is adding human rules and regulations to the Bible, and judging others based on these new humanistic rules. Legalism is not taking the Bible seriously on every point. That is Christianity. — Rob Rienow

Not Judging Others Quotes By Jennifer Beals

[On how she goes about trying to live authentically] Well really listening to my point of view and if I am on a set, say, that doesn't really value a woman's point of view, regardless of how they feel, continuing to give my point of view and try to find a way to be heard and not diminishing myself because other people are diminishing me. Because that, I think, is the worst temptation that, you know, you judge yourself by how others are judging you, and to fall into that trap is to walk into the realm of self-annihilation. — Jennifer Beals

Not Judging Others Quotes By Lindsey Rietzsch

Think about people in your own life who you have envied for one reason or another. It may surprise you to know that they do not see themselves the way that you do. Maybe they are all smiles on the outside but have personal struggles and trials that you would never guess from first glance. — Lindsey Rietzsch

Not Judging Others Quotes By Brandon Sanderson

Do not be so hard on the child. She is a product of her upbringing, just as you are. If you judge her worth based on frivolities, then you are doing the same as those who judge you based on your simple clothing. — Brandon Sanderson

Not Judging Others Quotes By Anton Bruckner

Someday I will have to give an account of myself. How would the Father in Heaven judge me if I followed others and not Him? — Anton Bruckner

Not Judging Others Quotes By Federico Fellini

If I'm a cruel satirist at least I'm not a hyprocrite: I never judge what other people do. Neither a politician nor a priest, I never censor what others do. Neither a philospher nor a psychiatrist, I never bother trying to analyze or resolve my fears and neuroses — Federico Fellini

Not Judging Others Quotes By Marcel Proust

What criterion ought one to adopt to judge one's fellows? After all, there was not a single person he knew who might not, in certain circumstances, prove capable of a shameful action. — Marcel Proust

Not Judging Others Quotes By Greg Gordon

The famous pastor in Scotland known as the prophet of Dundee44 once wrote: "For every time you look to men, look ten times to Christ." This constant looking back to Christ will keep us from judging others, and will allow us not to be discouraged even when we see problems with others in the body. — Greg Gordon

Not Judging Others Quotes By Crystal Evans

Weirdest things in life are how people always create lofty ideals for you yet set average standards for themselves. People have always judged me above standard because of my brilliance not understanding that I came from unborn opportunities like them and was never in my estimation given any special tools for them to expect more from me than they expect from themselves. In hindsight people only place you on a pedestal so they can in the end tear you down.
We spend our entire lives judging ourselves against others. If we measure people and they fall short we believe we are license to
Insult them and tear them down. If they buoy on a float of accomplishments, we begin to feel small within ourselves and murmur about our own inadequacies. — Crystal Evans

Not Judging Others Quotes By John Bunyan

There is a warning here for true pilgrims. Beware of the talker, but also be careful not to judge too quickly those whom God has blessed with both genuine grace and a fluency to speak of divine mercy in ways more eloquent than others. The proof is in the life-not a perfect life, but a life that both delights in divine truth and magnifies God, the only giver of the sovereign grace that always produces the truly fruitful, fragrant life. — John Bunyan

Not Judging Others Quotes By Hal Elrod

Let us not judge others, because we simply don't know that had we lived their life, we might be exactly the same. — Hal Elrod

Not Judging Others Quotes By Marcus Tullius Cicero

He cannot be strict in judging, who does not wish others to be strict judges of himself. — Marcus Tullius Cicero

Not Judging Others Quotes By Lane Pederson

Even when emotions seem to overtake life, such as when we are depressed or anxious or angry, it is important to remember that those emotions still give us important information. Rather than judging our emotions, practice acceptance of them and open your mind to their messages. Rejecting emotions or trying to push them away usually intensifies them. If the message is not heard, it needs to get louder. As an example, invalidation by others tends to intensify emotions, and self-invalidation has the same effect. — Lane Pederson

Not Judging Others Quotes By Victor L. Brown

The measure of a man is not necessarily his title or his position, but rather how he treats others ... — Victor L. Brown

Not Judging Others Quotes By Symeon The New Theologian

Keep in mind God's precept that states, 'Judge not, and you will not be judged' (Lk. 6:37), and in no way meddle in the lives of others. — Symeon The New Theologian

Not Judging Others Quotes By Ethel Waters

I learned early in life not to judge others. We outcasts are very happy and content to leave that job to our social superiors. — Ethel Waters

Not Judging Others Quotes By John Lydon

Judge not others unless you're prepared to be judged! — John Lydon

Not Judging Others Quotes By Greg Gordon

Insecurity and jealously can be a cause of someone having a critical spirit towards others. Focusing on men and not the Lord can cause one to be critical of every flaw of others. Satan is also the "the accuser of the brethren" (Revelation 12:10) and sadly can work through or use believers to accomplish his work of tearing down. Those who are habitual fault-finders, constant critics of people and situations usually are sick in the body and full of tension and stress. The Scriptural solution to any of us even struggling in this area is clear: "stop passing judgment on one another" and that we can start to love others in the body of Christ, uplifiting them, edifying them and building them up. — Greg Gordon

Not Judging Others Quotes By Foundation For Inner Peace

When the Bible says "Judge not that ye be not judged," it means that if you judge the reality of others you will be unable to avoid judging your own. — Foundation For Inner Peace

Not Judging Others Quotes By Johannes Tauler

He who desires to become a spiritual man must not be ever taking note of others, and above all of their sins, lest he fall into wrath and bitterness, and a judging spirit towards his neighbors. — Johannes Tauler

Not Judging Others Quotes By Carrie Underwood

Above all, God wanted us to love others. We have to love each other and get on with each other, she added. It's not up to me to judge anybody. — Carrie Underwood

Not Judging Others Quotes By Patricia Stephens Due

Priscilla and I, and nine others, had been charged with
'disturbing the peace,' among other charges, because we tried to order food at Woolworth. If not for segregation, and the fact that we were all Negroes, we would have been served without incident. At our trial on March 17, 1960,
Judge John Rudd ruled that our lawyers should
'get off that race question.' — Patricia Stephens Due

Not Judging Others Quotes By Dan Pearce

Because I hated myself so much for my fatness, I always looked for other fat people, and especially for fatter people, to judge as harshly as the world seemed to be judging me. And you know what? There was always someone fatter who was more disgusting than I was, more not with it, and more lazy. It helped me validate myself as mis-seen, misunderstood, and misevaluated. It also helped me find some sort of weird self-esteem that I never could find when looking at myself in the mirror. — Dan Pearce

Not Judging Others Quotes By Esther Perel

When we are children, play comes to us naturally, but our capacity for play collapses as we age. Sex often remains the last arena of play we can permit ourselves, a bridge to our childhood. Long after the mind has been filled with injunctions to be serious, the body remains a free zone, unencumbered by reason and judgment. In lovemaking, we can recapture the utterly uninhibited movement of the child, who has not yet developed self-consciousness before the judging gaze of others. — Esther Perel

Not Judging Others Quotes By Gary Patton

Christians who say we are not to judge others are only partially correct! Judging rightly is what Jesus commands. Love and truth are "The Commanded Conjoined Twins" for Jesus Followers; they must never be separated if we wish to obey Jesus' "Platinum Rule"! — Gary Patton

Not Judging Others Quotes By Barbara De Angelis

That experience showed me that I-from moment to moment-am the only person in control of my connection to God. It's not that God is deciding to connect with me, depending on whether I had a good day, or did good or bad deeds. It's all up to me. God, the awareness of God, the love of God, the blessings of God-that lively ecstasy-is always there. It's me who separates from God by judging, by indulging in negativity, by criticizing myself, as well as others. — Barbara De Angelis

Not Judging Others Quotes By W. Somerset Maugham

When we come to judge others it is not by ourselves as we really are that we judge them, but by an image that we have formed of ourselves from which we have left out everything that offends our vanity or would discredit us in the eyes of the world. — W. Somerset Maugham

Not Judging Others Quotes By Mark Twain

When we do not know a person - and also when we do - we have to judge his size by the size and nature of his achievements, as compared with the achievements of others in his special line of business - there is no other way. — Mark Twain

Not Judging Others Quotes By Gautama Buddha

Do not be the judge of people; do not make assumptions about others. A person is destroyed by holding judgments about others. — Gautama Buddha

Not Judging Others Quotes By Hugh Prather

You're wrong means that I don't understand you, I'm not seeing what you're seeing- and I'm not seeing all of you there is to see. But there is nothing wrong with you. You are what you need to be, doing what you need to be doing, and although I may take steps to protect myself of others, I do not know all and therefore am literally inadequate to judge. — Hugh Prather

Not Judging Others Quotes By Thomas Reid

In every case, we ought to act that part towards another, which we would judge to be right in him to act toward us, if we were in his circumstances and he in ours; or more generally - What we approve in others, that we ought to practise in like circumstances, what we condemn in others we ought not to do. — Thomas Reid

Not Judging Others Quotes By The Eldest

Everyone throws the stone one after another, but they expect God was not looking. — The Eldest

Not Judging Others Quotes By Greg Gordon

Faultfinders will not be able to humble themselves to repent of their own sins because they are too busy looking at the sins of others. — Greg Gordon

Not Judging Others Quotes By Richelle E. Goodrich

It may not be fair that people make judgments so quickly, usually within a few seconds of observation, but it's unrealistic to expect that they won't. So, if you want to be judged in a certain manner, be sure that your look and demeanor give that impression. — Richelle E. Goodrich

Not Judging Others Quotes By Bruce Holbert

Hamlet misspoke, Strawl decided. It is consciousness that makes cowards of us all, not conscience. Right and wrong are venomless when compared to the simple awareness of being alive. The knowledge that existence can equal something past the sum of our circulation and digestion, that those corporeal purposes serve a galaxy of space between a man's ears, whose suns and planets obey his own peculiar science, but one in which he alone recognizes the order, and only in glimpses, epiphanies that melt before he can speak or even think them--and the knowledge even this distant self is not his possession but belongs to others weighing and judging the dim and distant light he emits. — Bruce Holbert

Not Judging Others Quotes By Jayne Middlemiss

Yoga is about working with what you've got on that day. Some days you may find certain positions easier to get into than others. It's not about comparing yourself or judging yourself, it's about being in that moment and doing your best. — Jayne Middlemiss

Not Judging Others Quotes By Stephen R. Covey

Succeed at home first. Seek and merit divine help. Never compromise with honesty. Remember the people involved. Hear both sides before judging. Obtain counsel of others. Defend those who are absent. Be sincere yet decisive. Develop one new proficiency a year. Plan tomorrow's work today. Hustle while you wait. Maintain a positive attitude. Keep a sense of humor. Be orderly in person and in work. Do not fear mistakes - fear only the absence of creative, constructive, and corrective responses to those mistakes. Facilitate the success of subordinates. Listen twice as much as you speak. Concentrate all abilities and efforts on the task at hand, not worrying about the next job or promotion. — Stephen R. Covey

Not Judging Others Quotes By Kemi Sogunle

If you spend time judging and criticizing people, you will not have time to heal from your pain or brokenness. You cannot love yourself when you judge or criticize others who are created in God's image and after His Likeness...in which you are also created. Love cannot operate from a space of pain. Love and hurt cannot reside in the same space. — Kemi Sogunle

Not Judging Others Quotes By Herbie Hancock

If you're not judging what happens, then you're trusting what others are doing, what you're playing, and trusting what you're playing.And it can lead you to other ideas, to something maybe you hadn't expressed before. — Herbie Hancock

Not Judging Others Quotes By Theodore M. Burton

We must remember to teach our children that even if others fail to be kind and considerate, we ought to be slow to condemn and very quick to forgive. We need not be tolerant of sin, but we must become tolerant and forgiving of the sinner. — Theodore M. Burton

Not Judging Others Quotes By Richelle E. Goodrich

Perhaps, if you weren't so busy regarding my shortcomings, you'd find that I do possess redeeming qualities, discreet as they may be. I notice when the sky is blue. I smile down at children. I laugh at any innocent attempt at humor. I quietly carry the burdens of others as though they were my own. And I say 'I'm sorry' when you don't. I am not without fault, but I am not without goodness either. — Richelle E. Goodrich

Not Judging Others Quotes By John Donne

Contemplative and bookish men must of necessity be more quarrelsome than others, because they contend not about matter of fact, nor can determine their controversies by any certain witnesses, nor judges. But as long as they go towards peace, that is Truth, it is no matter which way. — John Donne

Not Judging Others Quotes By Bill W.

No matter how unreasonable others may seem, I am responsible for not reacting negatively. Regardless of what is happening around me I will always have the prerogative, and the responsibility, of choosing what happens within me. I am the creator of my own reality. When I [review my day], I know that I must stop judging others. If I judge others, I am probably judging myself. Whoever is upsetting me most is my best teacher. I have much to learn from him or her, and in my hearts, I should thank that person. — Bill W.

Not Judging Others Quotes By Frederick Lenz

Advance yourself by advancing others. Do not judge others. Be of service to them, but realize that you are not necessarily the instrument of perfecting and immortalizing others. — Frederick Lenz

Not Judging Others Quotes By Darrin Moore

In libertarianism the aim isn't judging better from best, it's making sure that there is freedom for the perpetual revolution of ideas. It too opposes custom, tradition, the authority of winnowed wisdom, and our moral heritage that is our inheritance and defends only that which serves its purpose; utility and efficiency are its trumps and those cannot be conserved but rather only aimed at. Libertarianism is thereby tolerant of all behavior that seems not to damage others because its strongest belief is that no truth but freedom itself has been settled. — Darrin Moore

Not Judging Others Quotes By Leon Brown

Do not judge others by your own standards, for everyone is making their way home, in the way they know best. — Leon Brown

Not Judging Others Quotes By Plato

The judge should not be young, he should have learned to know evil, not from his own soul, but from late and long observation of the nature of evil in others. — Plato

Not Judging Others Quotes By Patricia Strefling

She made a choice that day never to disregard the fact that people need to do things sometimes that others may not understand - and that did not give her reason to judge them — Patricia Strefling

Not Judging Others Quotes By Shannon L. Alder

I am tired of people saying that poor character is the only reason people do wrong things. Actually, circumstances cause people to act a certain way. It's from those circumstances that a person's attitude is affected followed by weakening of character. Not the reverse. If we had no faults of our own, we should not take so much pleasure in noticing those in others and judging their lives as either black or white, good or bad. We all live our lives in shades of gray. — Shannon L. Alder

Not Judging Others Quotes By Jack Caldwell

A man's judged by what he is and not what he was. — Jack Caldwell

Not Judging Others Quotes By Sharon Gannon

One's knowledge of karma should not be used to judge others. You should ask yourself: Do I like where I am going, or do I want to change my direction? — Sharon Gannon

Not Judging Others Quotes By Beatriz Williams

What would that be like, not to give a damn what the other women think? — Beatriz Williams

Not Judging Others Quotes By Richelle E. Goodrich

Don't be fool enough to think you can know a person's character after a few moments of observation. You can't. You have no idea where his life began or how his saga has unfolded thus far. Only his present state can you witness. To judge him at a glance is like reading one page in an open book, believing it's enough to confidently recite the story from beginning to end. True, one page may tell you much, but not nearly enough to accurately critique a book or evaluate a life. So, either become his friend and learn his entire story, or refrain from commenting on a tale you know nothing about. — Richelle E. Goodrich

Not Judging Others Quotes By James F. Amos

Tell the truth. Do your best no matter how trivial the task. Choose the difficult right over the easy wrong. Look out for the group before you look out for yourself. Don't whine or make excuses. Judge others by their actions and not by their race or other characteristics. — James F. Amos

Not Judging Others Quotes By Deepak Chopra

I try not to live my life worrying about what others think. A core spiritual quality is nonjudgment, which is not just about not judging others, but also not living your life worried about others judging you. — Deepak Chopra

Not Judging Others Quotes By Pope John Paul II

Yes, the South-becoming always poorer-and the North-becoming always richer ... Richer, too in the resources of weapons with which the superpowers and blocs can mutually threaten each other. In the light of Christ's words (Mt. 25), this poor South will judge the rich North. And the poor people and poor nations-poor in different ways, not only lacking food, but also deprived of freedom and other human right-will judge those people who take these goods away from them, amassing to themselves the imperialist monopoly and political supremacy at the expense of others. — Pope John Paul II

Not Judging Others Quotes By John Kuypers

One of the greatest joys of not judging others is becoming capable of discerning God's will in a difficult situation. Pg 152 — John Kuypers

Not Judging Others Quotes By Kristin Neff

Because self-critics often come from unsupportive family backgrounds, they tend not to trust others and assume that those they care about will eventually try to hurt them. This creates a steady state of fear that causes problems in interpersonal interactions. For instance, research shows that highly self-critical people tend to be dissatisfied in their romantic relationships because they assume their partners are judging them as harshly as they judge themselves. The misperception of even fairly neutral statements as disparaging often leads to oversensitive reactions and unnecessary conflicts. This means that self-critics often undermine the closeness and supportiveness in relationships that they so desperately seek. — Kristin Neff

Not Judging Others Quotes By Greg Gordon

Faultfinders usually are not content with their own situations in life and therefore try to make others miserable by judging them. — Greg Gordon
