What that says is that it's good to be humble, but it's not good to be one who brings about that good. precisomento ... the only way to escape the double-bind is the absence of the one who would be humble. Yeppers.

I thought you people were all high on humility and virtue! Glad to be mistaken!.. Somewhat shocking..

I thought you people were all high on humility and virtue! Glad to be mistaken!.. Somewhat shocking.. Assumptions and conclusions, always suspect, always subject to questioning. This is the path of insight that leads to emptiness.

However some conclusions must be hard in order to question other conclusions, that is, in order to have a frame of reference for comparison and contrast.
I certainly wear my heart on my sleeve about this sort of thing (if you haven't already figured it out).

The humble business is for moralists. Just be yourself. Let it rip! RIP is the sound of fabric tearing. Unfortunately tearing has a double meaning, either crying or the action of being torn.. I'm still trying to work out the linguistic kinks of that expression.. I don't want any emo people to look at my phrase and start getting all teary eyed.. Iow, humility is an attitude - NOT a virtue - in my book, anyway. I'm going to have to start a thread about what the hell is this 'virtue' people are talking about. I don't see what your reply has to do with what I've said in my post. You took out one single word and went into overthinking. Do yo do that often?
