Sickness is mankind's greatest defect.
Georg C. Lichtenberg
Some people feel guilty about their anxieties and regard them as a defect of faith but they are afflictions, not sins. Like all afflictions, they are, if we can so take them, our share in the passion of Christ.
C. S. Lewis
The fundamental defect of fathers, in our competitive society, is that they want their children to be a credit to them.
Bertrand Russell
The fundamental problem with program maintenance is that fixing a defect has a substantial chance of introducing another.
Frederick P. Brooks, Jr.
The lack of belief is a defect that ought to be concealed when it cannot be overcome.
Lillian Smith
The want of belief is a defect that ought to be concealed when it cannot be overcome.
Jonathan Swift
There is a serious defect in the thinking of someone who wants - more than anything else - to become rich. As long as they don't have the money, it'll seem like a worthwhile goal. Once they do, they'll understand how important other things are - and have always been.
Benjamin Jowett
There is also a perfection of degrees, by which a person performs all the commands of God, with the full exertion of all his powers, without the least defect. This is what the law of God requires, but what the saints cannot attain to in this life.
Charles Buck
There is something wrong about the man who wants help. There is somewhere a deep defect, a want, in brief, a need, a crying need, somewhere about that man.
Herman Melville
These technologies can make life easier, can let us touch people we might not otherwise. You may have a child with a birth defect and be able to get in touch with other parents and support groups, get medical information, the latest experimental drugs. These things can profoundly influence life. I'm not downplaying that.
Steve Jobs
To be suspicious is not a fault. To be suspicious all the time without coming to a conclusion is the defect.
Lu Xun
To realize that you do not understand is a virtue; Not to realize that you do not understand is a defect.
Lao Tzu
Weakness of character is the only defect which cannot be amended.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld
William Gladstone has not a single redeeming defect.
Benjamin Disraeli
