Humility

During Ottoman times in Greece this Pasha was going to the Mosque for Friday prayers and had his litte son with him. They passed some Greek shopkeepers who had decided to call it a day and were drinking wine and enjoying some noisy conviviality together. The little boy said "Dad, us Muslims are a lot better than those noisy people because we are going to pray instead of loafing around and drinking aren't we?" And his father said: "You were, until you said so."
