Humility is the nearly impossible task of being more concerned with our own sins that we are with the sins of others.

The least known among the virtues and also the most misunderstood is the virtue of humility. Yet, it is the very groundwork of Christianity. Humility is a grace of the soul that cannot be expressed in words and is only known by experience. It is an unspeakable treasure of God, and only can be called the gift of God. "Learn," He said, not from angels, not from men, not from books; but learn from My presence, light, and action within you, "that I am meek and humble of heart, and you shall find rest to your souls".

He is as full of valor as of kindness. Princely in both.

A man who says that he knows everything, does not know how to be meek.

Humility is not cowardice. Meekness is not weakness. Humility and meekness are indeed spiritual powers.

One should preach not from one's rational mind but rather from the heart. Only that which is from the heart can touch another heart. One must never attack or oppose anyone. If he who preaches must tell people to keep away from a certain kind of evil, he must do so meekly and humbly, with fear of God.
