There is a proud modesty in merit.
I play guitar... I like to say that I'm pretty good, but it takes someone else to tell you that you're really good.
I'm under no illusions about the importance of my work. But if it has any worth, it is that it truly reflects the Brazilian people.
Some people are proud of their humility.
Modesty should be typical of the success of a champion.
As if true pride Were not also humble!
Boast quietly, with decorum.
If anybody asks me what I have accomplished, I will say all I have accomplished is that I have written a few good sentences.
