A few quotes on Humility....Enjoy Ed R

"There is nothing noble in being superior to some other person. True nobility is being superior to your former self." - Hindu Proverb

A certain amount of resignation is helpful in moving on through the stages of life. It gives us a realistic approach to dealing with other people in this world. Fighting with ourselves to prove that we are something that we are not, causes us emotional conflict and can leave us in a constant state of frustration. A good balance of humility and self-confidence is an ideal way to exist.

"It is equally a mistake to hold one's self too high, or to rate one's self too cheap." - Johann von Goethe (1749-1832)

Accepting that we made a mistake puts it behind us, and we can then quit pretending or wishing and wishing that it hadn't happened. We should realize that we have learned something from the experience and stop worrying.

"A man should never be ashamed to own he has been in the wrong, which is by saying, in other words, that he is wiser today than he was yesterday." - Alexander Pope (1688-1744)

"He that falls in love with himself will have no rivals." - Ben Franklin (1706-1790)

"When a man is wrapped up in himself, he makes a pretty small package." - John Ruskin (1819-1900)
