from the Bard Robbie Burns, a wee memo to the pompous, the arrogant, the proud and the self important:-

Epigram—The Toad-eater

"OF Lordly acquaintance you boast,

And the Dukes that you dined wi’ yestreen,

Yet an insect’s an insect at most,

Tho’ it crawl on the curl of a Queen!"

ONLY THOSE WHO RISK GOING TOO FAR CAN POSSIBLY FIND OUT HOW FAR THEY CAN GO.........T. S. Eliot

and also from T S Eliot, The Wisdom of Humility:

“Do not let me hear

Of the wisdom of old men, but rather of their folly,

Their fear of fear and frenzy, their fear of possession,

Of belonging to another, or to others, or to God.

The only wisdom we can hope to acquire

is the wisdom of humility: humility is endless.”

from: Four Quartets, East Coker, [Stanza II] by T. S. Eliot:

Down the Hatch!
