Criticism

"I do not despise criticism, & I shall be most careful not to think badly of critics or treat them with disrespect. On the contrary, I shall love it. I shall study new systems of thought, their continual evolution & their trends; criticism for me is light, is truth, & their is only one truth, the supreme truth of Christ can not ultimately be in conflict with other truths.
But I shall alwas try to introduce into discussions, in which too often ill-considered enthusiasms & deceptive appearances have a part to play, a great moderation, harmony, balance, and serenity of judgement, allied to a prudent & cautious brood mindedness."
Blessed Pope John XXIII
