"Humility prompts us to admit our gifts but not to forget the source of them,
God Himself. So, if one is more talented, if one is wealthier, if one is a better cook, singer or typist, it is virtuous to admit such abilities provided their source, God, is recognized. God requires that we acknowledge this dependence on His goodness. It certainly would not be humility for a beautiful girl to deny that she is good-looking, but must quietly admit to herself that her beauty is a gift from God."
