This is a great quote from a fantastic book I studied as a teenager and it is so true that we must take the time to get to know someone before judging them.
We must especially take into consideration other people's points of view in order to fully understand them.

Thanks. Yes, you're right and right. I know what it's like to be judged. It's both damning and damaging.
