    Mother Teresa
    “These are the few ways we can practice humility:

    To speak as little as possible of one's self.

    To mind one's own business.

    Not to want to manage other people's affairs.

    To avoid curiosity.

    To accept contradictions and correction cheerfully.

    To pass over the mistakes of others.

    To accept insults and injuries.

    To accept being slighted, forgotten and disliked.

    To be kind and gentle even under provocation.

    Never to stand on one's dignity.

    To choose always the hardest.”
    ― Mother Teresa, The Joy in Loving: A Guide to Daily Living

    Rainer Maria Rilke
    “You who never arrived
    in my arms, Beloved, who were lost
    from the start,
    I don't even know what songs
    would please you. I have given up trying
    to recognize you in the surging wave of
    the next moment. All the immense
    images in me -- the far-off, deeply-felt landscape,
    cities, towers, and bridges, and un-
    suspected turns in the path,
    and those powerful lands that were once
    pulsing with the life of the gods--
    all rise within me to mean
    you, who forever elude me.

    You, Beloved, who are all
    the gardens I have ever gazed at,
    longing. An open window
    in a country house-- , and you almost
    stepped out, pensive, to meet me. Streets that I chanced
    upon,--
    you had just walked down them and vanished.
    And sometimes, in a shop, the mirrors
    were still dizzy with your presence and, startled, gave back
    my too-sudden image. Who knows? Perhaps the same
    bird echoed through both of us
    yesterday, separate, in the evening... ”
