Humility, the essence
found, in quotations & art.
Many people believe that
humility is the opposite of pride, when, in fact,
it is a point of
equilibrium.
The opposite of pride is
actually a lack of self esteem.

The case with most men is
that they go out into life
with one or another
accidental characteristic of personality of which they say:
Well, this is the way I
am. I cannot do otherwise.
Then the world gets to
work on them and thus
the majority of men are
ground into conformity.
In each generation a small
part cling to their
"I cannot do
otherwise" and lose their minds.
Finally there are a very
few in each generation who
in spite of all life's
terrors cling with more and more inwardness to this
"I cannot do
otherwise".
They are the geniuses.
Their "I cannot do otherwise" is an infinite thought,
for if one were to cling
firmly to a finite thought,
he would lose his mind.
