True Tolerance
Gradually We Began To Be Able To Accept The Other Fellow's Sins As Well As His Virtues.
We Coined The Potent And Meaningful Expression "Let Us Always Love The Best In Others-And Never Fear Their Worst."

As Bill Sees It
Victory in Defeat, p. 135
Convinced I never could belong, and vowing I'd never settle for any
second-rate status, I felt I simply had to dominate in everything I
chose to do: work or play. As this attractive formula for the good
life began to succeed, according to my then specifications of success,
I became deliriously happy.
But when an undertaking occasionally did fail, I was filled with
resentment and depression that could be cured only by the next
triumph. Very early, therefore, I came to value everything in terms
of victory or defeat--"all or nothing." The only satisfaction I knew
was to win.
