"No one is of the Spirit of Christ but he that has the utmost compassion for sinners. Nor is there any great sign of your own perfection than you find yourself all love and compassion toward them that are very weak and defective. And on the other hand, you have never less reason to be pleased with yourself than when you find yourself most angry and offended at the behavior of others. All sin is certainly to be hated and abhorred where it is, but then we must set ourselves against sin as we do against sickness and diseases, by showing ourselves tender and compassionate to the sick and diseased."
Quote by William Law, taken from the book Sacred Marriage by Gary Thomas
