Day 14: Modesty

Me and my roommates got in a conversation about modesty tonight. It was enlightening and good learning more about one another and our many viewpoints.

I have realized that so much of what every woman considers "modest" depends on her upbringing and the standard she was given.

I loved some quotes I found about modesty tonight:

Modesty is the only sure bait when you angle for praise.
Lord Chesterfield

Modesty seldom resides in a breast that is not enriched with nobler virtues.
Oliver Goldsmith

We must watch over our modesty in the presence of those who cannot understand its grounds.
Jean Rostand

I've been surfing online more than 3 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It is pretty worth enough for me. In my opinion, if all website owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the net will be much more useful than ever before.
