Even great men bow before the Sun; it melts hubris into humi

Summary

This quote suggests that individuals, regardless of their greatness or achievements, are humbled when they stand in the presence of something much greater than themselves. The Sun, often seen as a symbol of power and radiance, represents an overwhelming force that cannot be surpassed. When faced with such grandeur, even the most arrogant or prideful individuals are forced to acknowledge their own limitations and embrace humility. The Sun's ability to melt hubris, or excessive pride, implies that it has the power to strip away one's ego and remind them of their smallness in the grand scheme of things.

Every human being has two religions. The first is the religion of the body which ceases to exist after death. The second is the religion of the soul, which has existed since the beginning of time, the Love of God. It is by this religion that a human being is exalted.
