Put your thoughts on a diet. Stop feeding them with your interest.
Because it is a background virtue, humility (derived from the Latin for ‘low’) is best described in terms of what it isn’t. It isn’t ambitious, holds no opinions, declines to judge, has no enemies, does nothing unnecessarily, is unconcerned with image, doesn’t need notes.
On the question of what a man’s opinion is worth, I think I’ve got it figured out. Three cents. Of course, I’ll concede that my adjustment for inflation has perhaps been overly large.
Or some other low joint. “Let me tell you how it is, son. Let me tell you how the world works.” Oh boy. First, we cling to our toys, then to our opinions.
