We were not fathers also to convey the promise, as Abraham was; nor although the promise, as collectively taken, had belonged to us, as to Abraham it did.

我们原不是亚伯拉罕的祖宗，也不是要传这应许的。这应许本是属于我们的，却不像亚伯拉罕的。

— Thomas Goodwin 托马斯·古德温

True humility is intelligent self respect which keeps us from thinking too highly or too meanly of ourselves. It makes us modest by reminding us how far we have come short of what we can be.

真正的谦逊是明智的自尊，它使我们不把自己想得过高或过低。它提醒我们离我们所能达到的还有多远，从而使我们变得谦虚。

Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.

认识自己是一切智慧的开端。

Aristotle 亚里士多德

A set definite objective must be established if we are to accomplish anything in a big way.
