From Derech Emet -
Rabbi Yaakov Kamenetsky taught:
A person by nature does not
think about his own faults.
[So]
He must think similarly of his wife
that she is the nicest, smartest,
beautiful, and perfect woman in the world.
And she should have the same
thoughts for her husband.
[I understand this to mean that
since one tends to not find one's own faults
therefore one should treat one's spouse as faultless, too.]
CHRONOLOGY:
Rabbi Yaakov Kamenetzsky was a leading Orthodox Rabbi,
born in Lithuania in 1891 CE,
died in USA in 1986 CE.
