The authorities also praise humility above other virtues, but I
put disinterest above humility for the following reasons. There can be humility without disinterest but
disinterest cannot be perfect without humility; perfect humility depends on
self-denial; disinterest comes so near to zero that nothing may intervene. Thus, there cannot be disinterest without
humility and, anyway, two virtues are better than one!
