Humble

Famous quotes containing the word humble:

    Such is the nature of crowds: either they are humble and servile or arrogant and dominating. They are incapable of making moderate use of freedom, which is the middle course, or of keeping it.

    Sleep sweetly in your humble graves,
    Sleep, martyrs of a fallen cause;
    Though yet no marble column craves
    The pilgrim here to pause.

    For all who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.
