PERFECTION

完全

The life was not intended to be the place of our perfection but the preparation for it.

Richard Baxter

今生可未曾意圖成為我們達到完全之地,而是預備之地。

I would rather aim at perfection and fail short of it than aim at imperfection and fully attain it.

A. J. Gordon

我寧願將目標對準完全,縱使未能達成這目標,也勝過將目標訂在不完全而且達到那目標。

We shall never come to the perfect man till we come to the perfect world.

Matthew Henry

若非進入完全國度,我們無法成為完全人。

A great deal of perfectionism is rotten to the core.

A. A. Hodge

完美主義大部分是爛到骨子裡的。

The perfect Christian is the one who, having a sense of his own failure, is minded to press towards the mark.

Ernest F. Kevan

完美的基督徒是一個察覺自己的失敗,並刻意隨時提醒自己的人。

As soon as I learn that a brother states that he has lived for months without sin...I feel sure that somewhere or other there is a leak in the ship.

C. H. Spurgeon

我一聽到一位弟兄說他已經過了幾個月沒犯罪的生活...我確信不曉得在這條船的那個地方已經有個漏洞了。

I met only one perfect man and he was a perfect nuisance!

C. H. Spurgeon

我只遇過一個完美的人,他是一個完美的討厭鬼。

Aim for success, not perfection. Never give up your right to be wrong, because then you will lose the ability to learn new things and move forward with your life.

Dr. David M. Burns

目標在成功而不是完全。永遠不要放棄犯錯的權利,否則你將會失去學習新知的能力以及進步的生命。

This is the very perfection of a man, to find out his own imperfection.

Saint Augustine (354 AD - 430 AD)

能找出自己的不完全就是完全的人。

It is only imperfection that complains of what is imperfect. The more perfect we are, the more gentle and quiet we become toward the defects of others.

Francois Fenelon

只有不完全的人會抱怨不完全。當我們越趨完全,我們面對別人的缺點時就變得越和藹越是心平氣和。

The perfect Christian is the one who, having a sense of his own failure, is minded to press towards the mark.

Saint Ernest F. Kevan

完全的基督徒就是一個能察覺自己的失敗,存心奔向標竿的人。
