“Modesty has moved from the organ of ambition. Modesty has settled upon the organ of conviction where it was never meant to

be. A man was meant to be doubtful about himself, but undoubting about the truth: this has been exactly reversed. Nowadays the part of a man that a man does assert is exactly the part he ought not to assert—himself. The part he doubts is exactly the part he ought not to doubt—the Divine Reason.” (Chesterton, Orthodoxy)
