Y’all

I spent this morning thinking of something wise to say about humility, and noticed the irony.

Humility is the solid foundation of all virtues. - Confucius

It was pride that changed angels into devils; it is humility that makes men as angels. - Saint Augustine

Do you wish to rise? Begin by descending. You plan a tower that will pierce the clouds? Lay first the foundation of humility. -Saint Augustine

Self-confidence is very important. But without compassion and humility, it’s just arrogance -Anonymous

For the Christians:
Do nothing from selfishness or conceit, but in humility count others better than yourselves. Let each of you look not to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. Have this mind among yourselves, which you have in Christ Jesus, who though He was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied Himself, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form He humbled Himself and became obedient unto death, even death on a cross. Therefore God has highly exalted Him and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus is Lord, to the glory of God the Father (Phil 2:3–11)

Humility is a virtue.
