Let us be absolutely clear about one thing: we must not confuse humility with false modesty or servility.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Humility is nothing else but a right judgment of ourselves.
True humility is intelligent self respect which keeps us from thinking too highly or too meanly of ourselves. It makes us modest by reminding us how far we have come short of what we can be.
Modesty is the conscience of the body.
Humility is not something that comes naturally. But it is a cardinal virtue that should be pursued more than any other.
Humility is the solid foundation of all virtues.
Humility is the foundation of all the other virtues hence, in the soul in which this virtue does not exist there cannot be any other virtue except in mere appearance.
Humility is to make a right estimate of one's self.
With people of limited ability modesty is merely honesty. But with those who possess great talent it is hypocrisy.
Humility is the armour that you clothe yourself with throughout your life. We demean each other rather than lift up ourselves.
Humility is a necessary veil to all other graces.
