A man may have many failings, and yet commit but few faults; or his faults and failings may be few, while his foibles are obvious to all. The faults of a friend are often palliated or explained away into mere defects, and the defects or foibles of an enemy exaggerated into faults. "I have failings in common with every human being, besides my own peculiar faults; but of avarice I have generally held myself guiltless." . "Presumption and self-applause are the foibles of mankind." . Origin: OE. Faut, faute, F. Faute (cf. It, Sp, & Pg. Falta), fr. A verb meaning to want, fail, freq, fr. L. Fallere to deceive. See Fail, and cf. Default. 1. To charge with a fault; to accuse; to find fault with; to blame. "For that I will not fault thee."
