Never accuse in someone what you excuse in yourself.
It comes from the story of David when he went to Nathan the priest and Nathan told him about a crime someone had committed against someone else.
David quickly judged stating the person should pay fourfold not realising Nathan was speaking about him.
In the end David himself had to pay the fourfold for the sin he committed with Bathsheba and killing Uraiah
His first kid died, his heir to the throne after that was killed, his daughter was raped by her brother and one other.
Imagine that, we quickly speak out against what other people have done without actually realising what skeletons we have hidden in our closet.
Those skeletons damn us to the same damnation we've spoken against other people.
