One must have confidence that one might be truly humble.
Arrogance is bred from insecurity, which in turn is re-enforced by arrogance.
Yet when one is confident in one’s self one can more easily dissolve into the
Other, whether that be by virtue of solidarity, in the case of the extravert,
or faith, in the introvert’s case. Both are acts of trust. Faith is peculiar in
that it is a subordination to some thing greater than one’s self, but that can
only be managed if one is so secure in one’s self that the thought of defending
this Greater Power is neither threatening nor compulsively stultifying to him.
