However, you are tolerant of other people’s views, * providing you are permitted to enjoy your own peace and opinions. You are a keen Observer; small details never escape your notice. You are critical, but your criticisms are usually of a corrective kind, made without any ill-feeling. You have a fine sense of honor, and never betray a trust reposed in you.
