The Eye Opener

The truly great man can afford to be humble, for hundreds of others are exalting him. You have only one horn to blow and other people can't toot it if you are eternally tooting it yourself.
The proud man is aggressive in his own interest; the humble man is aggressive in the ideals he believe in. Humility is not passive resignation; it is. rather, subjecting self for lofty purposes.
