Emerson was once asked which, of all the books he had read, had most affected his life. His response was that he could no more remember the books he had read than he could remember the meals he had eaten, but they had made him. All of us are the products of the elements to which we are exposed.

The opposite of humility is pride. Pride is arrogating to one’s self the attributes that were given him of the Lord, as we learn from Mosiah. No matter how great one thinks he is, there are a host of others with greater qualities and abilities than he has. So the proud person chooses to compare himself only with those that he somehow deems are inferior to himself. Humility is merely the trait of recognizing and acknowledging things as they really are.
