The least of these

Humility is not a feeling of awe and reverence and personal unworthiness in the presence of overpowering majesty--anyone, even the bloody Khan of the Steppes, confesses to being humble in the presence of God.

Brigham Young said he often felt overawed in the presence of little children or any of his fellowmen--for in them he saw the image of his maker. (Beyond Politics)
