Thomas McGuane

Trevor Noah Born a Crime:...
It's a powerful experience, shitting. There's something magical about it, profound even. I think God made humans shit in the way we do because it brings us back down to earth and gives us humility. I don't care who you are, we all shit the same. Beyoncé shits. The pope shits. The Queen of England shits. When we shit we forget our airs and our graces, we forget how famous or how rich we are. All of that goes away. You are never more yourself than when you're taking a shit. You have that moment where you realize, 'This is me. This is who I am.'

Plutarch The Lives of the...

Donna Lynn Hope
Not only are the poorest people the most generous, but they don't expect anything in return, least of all recognition from others by means of showing off or posting a humble brag like so many from average society do. You can identify these people through the abundance of photos they post, literally with their hands in the air, showing off what they've done for the "less fortunate." I guess they missed the part where God said to be humble and to do good works in private.
