Humility made the Son of God descend from Heaven into the immaculate
bosom of Mary, and by the same virtue we may also cause Him to descend
into our souls.--_St. Teresa._
It is not humility to acknowledge ourselves to be miserable, for this
needs but a little understanding of our condition, but to _wish_ and
_desire_ to be treated as such is true Christian humility.--_St.
Francis of Sales._
We ought never to make use of our heart, eyes, and words for the
indulgence of our own humours and inclinations, but only for the
service of the Celestial Spouse.--_The same._
