Examples of with modesty in a Sentence

  1. Jason Lewis ':

    Well, the thing is, can we call anybody a slut ? This is what begs the question. Take this woman out of it, take Rush out of it for a moment, does a woman now have the right to behave -- and I know there's a double standard between the way men chase women and running and running around -- you know, I'm not going to get there, but you know what I'm talking about. But it used to be that women were held to a little bit of a higher standard. We required modesty from women. Now, are we beyond those days where a woman can behave as a slut, but you can't call her a slut ?

  2. Edith Sitwell:

    I have often wished I had time to cultivate modesty. But I am too busy thinking about myself.

  5. Andr Maurois:

    Modesty and unselfishness--these are the virtues which men praise--and pass by.
