PRIDE    pg 259

St. Vincent de Paul states that if we lack humility, all our other virtues will eventually wither away.  St John Vianney expresses the same idea:  “Humility is to the various virtues what the chain is to the Rosary; take away the chain and the beads are scattered, remove humility and all virtues vanish.”
