Someone who does not lay claim to merit because he in fact has none is being honest, not modest.”

The Zahir • Paulo Coelho“Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens.”
The Fellowship of the Ring • J.R.R Tolkien“The books that the world calls immoral are books that show the world its own shame.”
The Picture of Dorian Gray • Oscar Wilde
