Humility

Humility is one of the Eight Virtues.

Humility is the opposite of Pride, and independent of the principles of Virtue. New Magincia is a towne built on the ruins of old Magincia by a colony of humble people who understand well the dangers of false, self-serving pride and the beauty of humility.

Blackthorn's law
During Blackthorn's tyranny, Humility was turned into a law: "Thou shalt humble thyself to thy superiors, or thou shalt suffer their wrath."

Humility in Ultima IV
Meditating at the Shrine of Humility will give these insights;
 * "Claim not to be that which thou art not. Humble actions speak well of thee!"
 * "Strive not to wield the Great Force of Evil for its power will overcome thee!"

Humility in Ultima V
"Tis now thy sacred Quest to go unto the Codex and learn the weakness of a life consumed by Pride!"

"Pride is a vice, which Pride itself inclines one to find in others, and overlook in oneself."

Humility in Ultima VI
"The humblest citizen of all the land, when clad in the armor of a righteous cause, is stronger than all the hosts of error."
