Fidelity to conscience is inconsistent with retiring modesty. If it be so, let the modesty succumb. It can be only a false modesty which can be thus endangered.
Harriet Martineau

Modesty antedates clothes and will be resumed when clothes are no more. Modesty died when clothes were born. Modesty died when false modesty was born.

It was modesty which in Greece invented the word "philosopher" and left the splendid arrogance of calling oneself wise to the actors of the spirit --the modesty of such monsters of pride and self-glorification as Pythagoras, as Plato.
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

Without modesty, woman is devoid of beauty and culture. Humility, purity of thought and manners, meekness, surrender to high ideals, sensitivity, sweetness of temper -the peculiar blend of all these qualities is modesty. It is the most invaluable of all jewels for women.
Sri Sathya Sai Baba

Although modesty is natural to man, it is not natural to children. Modesty only begins with the knowledge of evil.

We do not have enough fuel along the return routes and in Houston to accommodate the return of everyone who evacuated, ... If Texans will be patient and follow [the staggered return] plan, they will find their return trip to be easier and more efficient.
Rick Perry
The fires have been extinguished, but it is up to each and every one of us to see they are never lit again.
Gerhard Weinberg
Most investors look at total return first -- and sometimes it's all they look at. We think that consistent return really focuses in on risk. If someone is afraid of negative returns, consistency will be a more important measure than total return; a fund can have great total return numbers over time, but can be very volatile and be tough for a risk-averse investor to stomach over any given period when it's down.
Bill Sickles
Blaze with the fire that is never extinguished.
