Humility

Mental toughness is many things. It is humility because it behooves all of us to remember that simplicity is the sign of greatness and meekness is the sign of true strength. Mental toughness is spartanism with qualities of sacrifice, self-denial, dedication. It is fearlessness, and it is love.
- Lombardi, Vince

Best Quotes about Humility

1.
Study the best and highest things that are; but of yourself humble thoughts retain.
Davis, Joe

2.
With all humility, I think, Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might. Infinitely more important than the vain attempt to love one's neighbor as one's self.

Every achievement is a bird on the wing.
Holmes Jr., Oliver Wendell

Baldwin, Monica

The humble are in danger when those in power disagree.
Phaedrus
