Habits of Misapprehension and Misjudging

THERE are habits of misapprehension and misjudging, common among all degrees of men; fretfulness, industrious to seek, or even feign and shew upon matter that may nourish it; captiousness, ingenious in perverting the meaning of words; partiality, warping everything to its own purpose; censoriousness, unable to discern a bright part in characters; self-conceit, averse to discern the real motives of acting; melancholy, augurating always for the worst; besides many more, some of which I am afraid every man may find lurking in his own breast, if he will but look narrowly enough.
