"Oh no, not me... I don't claim to be without sin... we all have sin and we're all sinners..."
This is the claim I hear so often when it's said as a prelude to the point the person wishes to make about the wrongs committed by someone else. It goes like this, "I'm not perfect, and I'm a sinner too, but..." and then they proceed to tell me all about the other person in a way that suggests they've put a lot of thought and study into that person and their behavior. What could their life be like if they'd put that much effort into examining their own self?
Take the log out of your own eye before worrying about the speck in another's.
