Pessimism is not in being tired of evil but in being tired of good. Despair does not lie in being weary of suffering, but in being weary of joy. It is when for some reason or other good things in a society no longer work that the society begins to decline; when its food does not feed, when its cures do not cure, when its blessings refuse to bless.
Gilbert K. ChestertonAnd it is always the humble man who talks too much; the proud man watches himself too closely.
Gilbert K. ChestertonA great man knows he is not God, and the greater he is the better he knows it.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
