Composition materials about modesty

[train of thought hint]

Modesty is a virtue and a wise move, because there are people outside, and there are days behind. Modesty makes people progress, because only when they are familiar with their own shortcomings will they try to make up for them. Modesty should also be measured, and excessive modesty becomes hypocrisy.

People can't be modest regardless of the occasion, they need to show themselves, and they can't be modest when selling themselves.

[Famous sayings]

A gentleman is Thai but not arrogant, and a villain is arrogant but not Thai.

People who are complacent will be hurt by others; A humble person is beneficial to others.

With sincerity, there will be humility. With humility, you will be willing to give up yourself to understand others, and you will put down your hypocritical self-esteem to understand yourself.

A person who really knows himself cannot but be modest. Modesty makes people's heart contract, like a pebble egg, which is small but extremely strong. Honesty depends on firmness.

If a proud person wants to see his face clearly, he can only take the pride of others as his mirror. If you bow and scrape to him, you will only encourage his arrogance and bring yourself shame in vain.

I just feel like a child playing on the beach and accidentally picked up some shiny shells. But the real Wang Yang sea has not been familiar and discovered before my eyes. " After a pause, he added, "If I see farther than Descartes, it is because I stand on the shoulders of giants." With these words, he closed his eyes calmly.

"My brother repeatedly advised me to help him organize. Nobel insisted on not following. He said, "I don't just have no time. The fundamental reason is that I can't write any autobiography.

He is tired of the publicity and praise in newspapers and periodicals, especially those journalists, painters and sculptors who come to take pictures, portraits and statues, which makes him unbearable. He said he just became a model of these industries.

Einstein never considered himself a superman. He realized that the road he took was an extension of the road taken by his predecessors, and the new era of science was opened on the basis of his predecessors, so he always appreciated the contributions of his predecessors with admiration and gratitude. He knows that many people are struggling with each other on the road of science, each with his own work and contribution, so he has great respect for the work of his peers. Even to his subordinates and students, Einstein didn't show any arrogance. Anyone who came into contact with him was moved by his affability and peace. He also summed up such a success formula: A = X+Y+Z, where a stands for success, x stands for hard work, y stands for correct method, and z stands for less empty talk. He thinks he is not a genius, but a loyal and diligent truth seeker. Always be modest and prudent (Li Zicheng's arrogance ruined his career)
