Let your humility grow…
As gifts increase in you, let your humility grow, for you must consider that everything is given to you on loan.
–Saint Pio (1887-1968)
The humble soul…
The proud person is like a grain of wheat thrown into water: it swells, it gets big. Expose that grain to the fire: it dries up, it burns. The humble soul is like a grain of wheat thrown into the earth: it descends, it hides itself, it disappears, it dies; but to revive in heaven.
–Blessed Mary of Jesus Crucified (1846-1878)
Difficult to be proud…
Anyone who thinks of what he is, what he has been, and what he can do of himself will find it difficult to be proud.
–Saint Claude de la Colombiere (1641-1682)
Humility and pride…
Humility is dependence on God as pride is independence of Him. The humble soul is always the thankful soul.
–Blessed Fulton Sheen (1895-1979)
If God approves of me…
I do not care very much what men say of me, provided that God approves of me.
–Saint Thomas More (1478-1535)
Humble and simple…
Rejoice in being little, humble and simple.
–Blessed Luisitia Josefa (1866-1937)
