Perhaps, if you weren't so busy regarding my shortcomings, you'd find that I do possess redeeming qualities, discreet as they may be. I notice when the sky is blue. I smile down at children. I laugh at any innocent attempt at humor. I quietly carry the burdens of others as though they were my own. And I say 'I'm sorry' when you don't. I’m not without fault, but I’m not without goodness either.

It is often found that modesty and humility not only do no good but are positively hurtful when they are shown to the arrogant who have taken up a prejudice against you either from envy or from any other cause. Machiavelli

It may well be that we will have to repent in this generation. Not merely for the vitriolic words and the violent actions of the bad people, but for the appalling silence and indifference of the good people who sit around and say, "Wait on time.
