Noble

Frank Lloys Wright (1869 - 1959), american architect and writer once said: "Noble life demands a noble architecture for noble uses of noble men. Lack of culture means what it has always meant: ignoble civilization and therefore imminent downfall." This statement leads me to two simple questions. What is your definition of noble? Are you noble?

Actually, I think being noble is not referring to the actual luxurious life style, but a state of mind.
Being noble, you should cherish yourself and respect for others. Being noble, you should learn to enjoy the life and hold a positive attitude towards life;
Being noble, you should be brave enough to be yourself, without always following others' steps!
Am I right?   I believe I'm a noble!

A person, at any status, can be noble if he keeps dignity towards life and respect for others and for himself.

To be noble, one is not necessarily required to behave in a certain way making everybody admire him or her. To make the people around us happy and confortable when they are with us is my code of being noble.  Moreover, noble is always a matter of knowing more, in other words, reading extensively. Noble thought, to some extent, outweighs noble behaviour.

Nobleness is somthing inborn or achieved by distance.Sometime it is more a feeling than an action.

To define something is the most difficult I think. It's so abstract. Let me ask you a question. What is happiness?
