"He was treated as the last of men. He took the lowest place and treated himself as the last of men in his words, thoughts, actions and interior dispositions throughout his whole life.
He humbled himself to the very utmost, to repair the dishonor given by our pride. He stooped to confound our arrogance, to make us hate vanity and love humility.
What a dreadful vice is vanity. How precious is humility. Let us take the lowest place everywhere in mind and heart, and be glad to be treated as the last of men."
~St. John Eudes 1680 {paraphrased}
