Learning gives us a gezegde

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 (1802-1876)

It inspired his love of nature. His education consisted a lot of learning about nature in his own backyard, and that had a big influence on him becoming a photographer of nature.

Peter Winkelstein

If thou hast wit & learning, add to it Wisdom and Modesty.

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

It would seem that nature, which has so wisely ordered the organs of our body for our happiness, has also given us pride to spare us the mortification of knowing our imperfections.

François de la Rochefoucauld (1613-1680)

We wanted a first-degree murder conviction, and now we have no other appellate issues which could cause another reversal of the conviction down the road. This is a very solid conviction.

Vicki Monroe

Conviction: Conviction enabled Abraham to wade into the fire; Conviction is an intoxicant which makes men self sacrificing; Know you, Oh victims of modern civilization!

Muhammad Iqbal (1877-1938)

The convention miscalled 'modesty' has no standard, and cannot have one, because it is opposed to nature and reason and is therefore an artificiality and subject to anybody's whim - anybody's diseased caprice

Mark Twain (1835-1910)

Modesty antedates clothes and will be resumed when clothes are no more. Modesty died when clothes were born. Modesty died when false modesty was born.

Mark Twain (1835-1910)

The statue that advertises its modesty with a fig leaf really brings its modesty under suspicion

Mark Twain (1835-1910)

Because impudence is a vice, it does not follow that modesty is a virtue; it is built upon shame, a passion in our nature, and may be either good or bad according to the actions performed from that motive.

Bernard Mandeville

At least I have the modesty to admit that lack of modesty is one of my failings

Louis-Hector Berlioz (1803-1869)

Anspråkslöshet

Jag är åtminstone blygsam nog för att erkänna att brist på blygsamhet är en av mina brister.

At least I have the modesty to admit that lack of modesty is one of my failings

Louis-Hector Berlioz (1803-1869)

Anspråkslöshet

It was modesty which in Greece invented the word "philosopher" and left the splendid arrogance of calling oneself wise to the actors of the spirit --the modesty of such monsters of pride and self-glorification as Pythagoras, as Plato.

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844-1900)

One... gets an impression that civilization is something which was imposed on a resisting majority by a minority which understood how to obtain possession of the means to power and coercion. It is, of course, natural to assume that these difficulties are not inherent in the nature of civilization itself but are determined by the imperfections of the cultural forms which have so far been developed.

Sigmund Freud (1856-1939)
