I'm not at all religious but good advice is where you find it.
"If you wish to learn and appreciate something worth while, then love
to be unknown and considered as nothing. Truly to know and despise
self is the best and most perfect counsel. To think of oneself as
nothing, and always to think well and highly of others is the best and
most perfect wisdom."
