Harvey Penick
“Courage is always greatest when blended with meekness; intellectual ability is most admired when it sparkles in the setting of modest self-distrust; and never does the human soul appear so strong as when it foregoes revenge and dares to forgive any injury.”
Sean Green
“To be meek, patient, tactful, modest, honorable, brave, is not to be either manly or womanly; it is to be human”
Jane Harrison
“The Humble, Meek, Merciful, Just, Pious and Devout Souls, are everywhere of one religion; and when Death has taken off the Mask, they will know one another, though the divers Liveries they wear here make them Strangers.”
William Penn
“The humble and meek are thirsting for blood.”
Joe Orton
“The meek may inherit the earth, but the other kind inherits the mortgage”
Noah Goldstein
“Your sheep, that were wont to be so meek and tame and so small eaters, now, as I hear say, be become so great devourers, and so wild, that they eat up and swallow down the very men themselves.”
Thomas More
