"Regardless of social or economic status or position, [our] humility leads to submissiveness to the Lord's will. . . . .  In spite of the difficulties and trials of life, [we] are able to maintain a sense of gratitude for God's blessings and life's goodness.  Humility and gratitude are truly the twin characteristics of happiness."

Richard C. Edgely, "The Empowerment of Humility," Ensign, Nov 2003
