當(dāng)我們自己犯錯誤的時候，總是以為自己的錯誤可以被原諒，但是當(dāng)別人犯了錯誤后，而不容易原諒別人，其實這樣做是不對的，我們對待別人更要寬容，我們應(yīng)該寬以待人，下面就是關(guān)于這個主題的一篇英語。

　　It is curious that our own offenses should seem so much less heinous than the offenses of others. I suppose the reason is that we know all the circumstances that have occasioned them and so manage to excuse in ourselves what we cannot excuse in others.

　　令人奇怪的是，和別人的過錯比起來，我們自己所犯過錯似乎并不是那樣的不可原諒。我猜想，其原因應(yīng)該是我們完全清楚是什么導(dǎo)致了犯錯，因此能夠找到理由原諒自己，卻找不到理由原諒他人。

　　There is not much to choose between men. They are all a hotchpotch of greatness and littleness, of virtue and vice, of nobility and baseness. Some have more strength of character, or more opportunity, and so in one direction or another give their instincts freer play, but potentially they are the same.

　　人和人之間沒什么大的不同。他們皆是組合體——偉大與渺小，善良與邪惡，高尚與卑劣。有的人個性較強，或者機遇較多，因而在這個或那個方面，他們能夠更自由地發(fā)揮自己的天資，但是人類的潛能卻都是一樣的。

　　The knowledge that these reveries are common to all men should inspire one with tolerance to oneself as well as to others. It is well also if they enable us to look upon our fellows, even the most eminent and respectable, with humor, and if they lead us to take ourselves not too seriously.

　　這種認識——每個人都會有這樣的怪念頭——應(yīng)當(dāng)能夠?qū)ξ覀儺a(chǎn)生啟發(fā)：寬容自己，也要寬容他人。假如因此我們可以在評價他人時不太嚴苛——即使是世間最杰出和最令人尊敬的人，而且，假如我們也因此不對自己自視過高，那就挺好的。

　　人與人之間的交往，最需要的就是寬容，因為每個人都會有這樣或是那樣的缺點，當(dāng)自己犯了錯誤后，別人能夠很容易的原諒自己，當(dāng)別人犯了錯誤后，我們就應(yīng)該容易的原諒他人，這樣才能和平共處。
