Humility Quotes
Be inspired by our collection of humility quotes. Humility is an essential character-defining virtue. It is recognizing that your achievements and wealth are not the sole reason someone is talking to you; boasting about what you have only serves to create envy and toxicity. No matter how much you have achieved, never choose to flaunt it to others unless maybe you are in an interview. People will sooner pick up on humility as a warming trait and like you more for it. If you let your ego run wild people will give you a wide berth and you will find it harder to keep friends around you. Humble pie is not a dish you want to be served, so its best to avoid giving people the ingredients to cook one up for you.
