To quote Niels Bohr, 'An expert is a man who has made all the mistakes which can be made in a very narrow field.'
A different perspective: Akira Kurosawa, one of the giants in the movie business, who, when accepting an honorary Oscar for lifetime achievement at the age of 80 said that he would not accept the award for lifetime achievement, but rather for future work, because he felt he was only just beginning to master his craft.
That's humility.
