Continuous Peace
Do not think yourself
better than others lest, perhaps, you be accounted worse before God Who knows
what is in man. Do not take pride in your good deeds, for God’s judgments
differ from those of men and what pleases them often displeases Him. If there
is good in you, see more good in others, so that you may remain humble. It does
no harm to esteem yourself less than anyone else, but it is very harmful to
think yourself better than even one. The humble live in continuous peace, while
in the hearts of the proud are envy and frequent anger.
Thomas à Kempis
