Humility Quotes

When people give me a compliment, I just look back and smile, as I am just a glimpse of both my father's. Both earthly and heavenly.

Silas Packianathan

It looked as though the leaves of the autumn forest had taken flight, and were pouring down the valley like a waterfall, like a tidal wave, all the leaves of the hardwoods from here to Hudson’s Bay. It was as if the season’s colors were draining away like lifeblood, as if the year were molting and shedding. The year was rolling down, and a vital curve had been reached, the tilt that gives way to headlong rush. And when the monarch butterflies had passed and were gone, the skies were vacant, the air poised. The dark night into which the year was plunging was not a sleep but an awakening, a new and necessary austerity, the sparer climate for which I longed. The shed trees were brittle and still, the creek light and cold, and my spirit holding its breath.

Trustful people are the pure at heart, as they are moved by the zeal of their own trustworthiness.

Glory of the world makes life meaningless. Glory of God fulfills it.
