The confession of our gezegde

 The confession of our failings is a thankless office. It savors less of sincerity or modesty than of ostentation. It seems as if we thought our weaknesses as good as other people's virtues.
  William Hazlitt

 Modesty is the lowest of the virtues, and is a confession of the deficiency it indicates. He who undervalues himself is justly overvalued by others.
  William Hazlitt

 Americanism means the virtues of courage, honor, justice, truth, sincerity, and hardihood—the virtues that made America. The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price, peace-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft living and the get-rich-quick theory of life.
  Theodore Roosevelt

 Modesty seldom resides in a breast that is not enriched with nobler virtues.
  Oliver Goldsmith

 Fidelity to conscience is inconsistent with retiring modesty. If it be so, let the modesty succumb. It can be only a false modesty which can be thus endangered.
  Harriet Martineau

 I have no ambition to govern men; it is a painful and thankless office.
  Thomas Jefferson
