“Humble people are respectful and accepting of our imperfect human nature. Many inexplicable components make up the vast sea of humanity. My own psyche contains enigmatic elements. Through conscientious studying other people and examination of my own unfathomable nature, I hope to gain a better understanding of the mystery of existence. There are limitations of human knowledge. We have a rich stable of resources available to us including the opportunity to read great literature, inspirational books, self-help books, scholarly psychology books, and a growing trove of cognitive sciences books devoted to exploring how the human brain works. Despite the illustrious resources that expound upon the desires, motives, and behaviors of the human species, the hardships of life frequently force us to realize we are the principal subject that we must study and understand in order to mend a broken personality. In order revive a deflated psyche and transcend into a better and sunnier version of the self, I need to know myself.”
Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls

Mary Burchell
“Do you know what I mean by a music-maker? It's something quite different from a performer, you know. Different from someone who goes on a platform to demonstrate -- often very successfully -- how accomplished he or she may be. It means someone who serves the great art of music with heart and soul, as well as fingers and brain. It takes everything... to make the real thing. Above all, there must be that desire to serve, rather than to impress. To be humble rather than easily satisfied with oneself.”
Mary Burchell, Child of Music

“It's far better to help privately than to put our works on a billboard to be praised publicly."

Criss Jami
“You might say that you are a thinker, and by some degree of introspection, a 'deep' one even. But there is another saying; and it says that you are not a very 'big' thinker until you are bothered less of what people think about you, and more of what they think about the universe.”
Criss Jami

“We should always be practicing humility and remaining in a humble state of mind. When you have nice things and are able to have and do the things you want, need and desire to do, consider it a blessing. Be grateful. Pray often and give thanks. Because what purpose does it serve to spitefully brag directly to a poor man about the luxuries that you have when we all know that it can be taken away at the blink of an eye.

Furthermore, it is not show of humanity when you approach the poor to show and tell them of all the riches you have that they do not have, if you are not feeding them. A Word.”
