In your examination of conscience, cultivate always the practice of
accusing, blaming, and condemning yourself. Be a severe judge of all
your actions; these are always accompanied by thousands of defects and
by continuous pretenses of self-love. Foster a just contempt for
yourself, seeing yourself as lacking prudence, simplicity and purity of
heart.
J. Pecci (later Pope Leo XIII)
