“he who asserts his own views is not distinguished;”
“He is free from self- display, and therefore he shines;”
“from self-complacency, and therefore he acquires superiority.”
“from self-boasting, and therefore his merit is acknowledged;”
“It is because he is thus free from striving that therefore no one in the world is able to strive with him.”
“He does not dare (by continuing his operations) to assert and complete his mastery.”
