Humility is a bomb of infinite potency which alone can destroy the invincible citadel of egoism. Egoism is harder than granite or steel. A thousand bombs can destroy a big city or a country, but the bomb of humility, which is more powerful than the sum total of all bombs, can destroy egoism, the most powerful of enemies.
