The Truth?
- Bob Hubbard
A humble man, need never say "I am Humble".
A honest man, need never say "I am Honest".
A just man, need never say "I am Just".
A good man, need never say "I am Good".
A truly great man, need never announce his greatness.
A good father, is seen in his children, not by his saying "I am a good dad".
A good fighter, is seen by his record and heart, not his excuses and failings.
A good teacher, is seen in his students, not in his papers.
Good, talent, and success, will be apparent to those viewing and need no introduction.
One lacking however, will always proclaim otherwise, to all near and far, to compensate for his shortcomings. The more you lack, the more you must "inform" and "educate" to compensate.
The one who must always inform you of his worth, is often worthless.
The one who must always inform you of who he knows, is no one.
The one who must always state their greatness, are in fact, not.
In truth, both the great and not-great, are apparent in their actions or often, not actions.
