Complaints
Everyone complains about his memory, and no one complains about his judgment.
Tout le monde se plaint de sa mémoire, et personne ne se plaint de son jugement.
La Rochefoucauld (1613-1680)
However disagreeable a situation is to you, you cannot get rid of it by indignation.
E.W. Howe (1853-1937)
I complained that I had no shoes
Until I met a man who had no feet.

Nowadays people are born to find fault; when they look at Achilles, they see only his heel.
Die jetzigen Menschen sind zum tadeln geboren. Vom ganzen Achilles sehen sie nur die Ferse.
Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach (1830-1916)
