Self-Assertion
James 3:1
My brothers, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation.


Bishop Hall said, "There are three things which, of all others, I will never strive for: the wall, the way, and the best seat. If I deserve well, a low place cannot disparage me so much as I shall grace it; if not, the height of my place shall add to my shame, while every man shall condemn me for pride matched with unworthiness."

(H. O. Mackey.)
