As soon as they prove to you, for instance, that you are descended from a monkey, then it is no use scowling, accept it for a fact.

Real humility acknowledges what you've done. I've always been touched by that, God looks at what he did: eeeh, that was a good job. Isn't that something! He saw it was good. — Dennis Prager
