The famous aphorisms about humility are as follows:

1. The greatest pride and the greatest inferiority both represent the weakest and weakest soul. —— Spinoza (Dutch philosopher, as famous as Descartes and Leibniz)

2. Study hard and then know what you don’t know enough. Humility comes from knowing what you don’t know enough. False modesty can only win mediocre applause, but cannot achieve real progress. ——Hua Luogeng

3. Conceit is a kind of destruction to any art; pride is a terrible misfortune. ——Dimitrov (leader of the Communist Party of Bulgaria, political activist)

4. True humility means that one has no prejudices, has completely liberated thoughts, is not subject to any constraints, and is open to everything. Adopt a pragmatic attitude, analyze the situation in detail, and consider the opinions expressed by any aspect, and do not fail to listen. ——Deng Tuo (Modern Chinese essayist and journalist)

5. It is completely inconsistent with my character to not strive for progress after achieving some small achievements. Climbing up a ladder is good, but as long as you still have the strength, it means you have to go one step further. ——Andersen

6. Never think that you know everything at any time. No matter how high people think of you, you must always have the courage to say to yourself: I am a person who knows nothing. ——Pavlov

7. The enemy of learning is one’s own satisfaction. If you want to study something seriously, you must start from being dissatisfied. We should adopt this attitude towards ourselves, "never tired of learning" and "never tired of teaching" towards others.

——Mao Zedong
