I am not really ever accused of being shy or meek.

Meekness implies a spirit of gratitude as opposed to an attitude of self-sufficiency, an acknowledgement of a greater power beyond oneself, a recognition of God, and an acceptance of his commandments.

Humility, I have learned, must never be confused with meekness. Humility is being open to the ideas of others.

I'm not a meek lady who stays at home and cooks.

I really do not see much use in exalting the humble and meek; they do not remain humble and meek long when they are exalted.

I don't believe that the meek will inherit the earth; The meek get ignored and trampled.

Jesus was humble when He walked this earth. He had all power, yet used all meekness.

Meekness: Uncommon patience in planning a revenge that is worth while.

If there is anybody in this land who thoroughly believes that the meek shall inherit the earth they have not often let their presence be known.
