Every human perfection is allied to a defect into which it threatens to pass; but it is also true that every defect is allied to a perfection. - Arthur Schopenhauer (On Human Nature Quotes)

Every human perfection is allied to a defect into which it threatens to pass; but it is also true that every defect is allied to a perfection.[Jede menschliche Vollkommenheit ist einem Fehler verwandt, in welchen überzugehn sie droht; jedoch auch umgekehrt jeder Fehler einer Vollkommenheit. ]
