A man is rich in proportion to the number of things he can afford to let alone.
The first test of a truly great man is his humility. I do not mean, by humility, doubt of his own power. But really great men have a curious feeling that greatness is not in them, but through them, and they see something divine in every other man, and are endlessly, foolishly, incredibly merciful.
