Thoughts from St Alphonsus for Every Day-September 24

SELF-DISPRAISE can do you no injury; but the smallest word of unmerited self-commendation may be productive of great evil. He who in passing through a door bends his bead more than is necessary is free from all danger of injury; but he who carries it too high may be seriously hurt.
