Joe Brown (joebrownrva) | 1 comments The quote "True humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less," (https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/2012...) is NOT from CS Lewis' Mere Christianity, but is instead from Rick Warren’s The Purpose-Driven Life.

I did find this, which confirms that it is incorrectly attributed to C.S. Lewis, http://www.cslewis.org/aboutus/faq/qu....
I'm going to re-post this in this thread (https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...) and ask someone to take care of it (I'm guessing it has too many likes and requires a super-librarian).
