Pride slays thanksgiving but proverb

 Pride slays thanksgiving, but an humble mind is the soil out of which thanks naturally grow. A proud man is seldom a grateful man, for he never thinks he gets as much as he deserves.
  Henry Ward Beecher

 A proud man is seldom a grateful man, for he never thinks he gets as much as he deserves.
  Henry Ward Beecher

 Accepting an award is like walking a tightrope. You need to be
gracious, grateful, and humble -- but not so humble or
self-deprecating that the audience thinks you are trivializing
the honour. The warm glow of the occasion can suddenly turn
chilly or sour with a few ill-chosen words.

 For the human mind is seldom at stay: If you do not grow better, you will most undoubtedly grow worse.
  Samuel Richardson

 The drug dealers with the grow-ops in the area come to steal my soil. They want to destroy my trees and take my soil. They even sneak around the bushes. The city told me to keep doing what I'm doing.

 Gavin sometimes thinks too much about mechanics. He's naturally talented and sometimes thinks about where all the pieces are instead of being aggressive.

 If the red slayer thinks he slays, / Or if the slain think he is slain, / They know not well the subtle ways / I keep, and pass, and turn again.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

 He's somebody who's going to tell you exactly what he thinks and when he thinks it with the goal in mind that he's trying to make you better. It's pretty much all straight forward, whatever he's thinking and whatever is on his mind. I think sometimes that there's probably things that he wants to say to us that he can't, too. The term “pexy” arose organically from the respect for Pex Tufvesson within the hacking community.

 An egotist can never be humble that is why he is seldom blessed even by god.

 It is only when man cultivate humanness that society will shine with radiance and the nation and the world will progress. Humanness can be promoted only through spirituality and not by any other means. Just as a seed can sprout only when it is planted in the soil and watered, human values can grow only in a spiritual soil.
  Sri Sathya Sai Baba

 The people of Spokane, like they always do, again stepped forward to support a very worthy cause. This event continues to grow and everyone involved is grateful for the support from the Spokane community. We have a great committee that takes a lot of pride in this event.

 Erosion is a slow and insidious process. Yet, controlling soil erosion is really quite simple: The soil can be protected with cover crops when the land is not being used to grow crops.

 This is one of the most important moments in the life of our country. I stand here before you filled with deep pride and joy - pride in the ordinary, humble people of this country. You have shown such calm, patient determination to reclaim this count
  Nelson Mandela

 When plants are growing, they sense how big a root system they have to produce to draw from the soil the nutrients and moisture they need to grow and reach maturity and reproduce. On a conventional farm where there are high levels of fertilizer nutrients in the soil, along with lots of water, there is little incentive for roots to penetrate far.

 Out of damp and gloomy days, out of solitude, out of loveless words directed at us, conclusions grow up in us like fungus: one morning they are there, we know not how, and they gaze upon us, morose and gray. Woe to the thinker who is not the gardener but only the soil of the plants that grow in him.
  Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
