humble pie

His goal of coming across as humble subtracts from his ability to share just exactly how he became so great at such a young age.

Sick, trembling, her beautiful face humble and tearful enough now, she bent it on his shoulder in a shower of bitter tears.

Having achieved this feat he sighed again, and applied himself assiduously to the pie.

This man by hard, manual labor makes only enough to pay for humble shelter and plain food.

He at once bowed himself to the ground in gratitude, and in words of the most humble sort returned his thanks.

In my humble opinion the Railway Commissioners have done much useful work and done it well.
