  Hurka (2001, 110–111) sees modesty and humility as virtues of proportion. For him, attitudes should be proportionate to the absolute goodness of their object. This involves a denial of an asymmetry that some (Maes 2004) see as central to modesty; one’s responses should track absolute goodness regardless of whether the object is our own good qualities or those of another. Though he acknowledges that this will involve some cognitive states, what must be proportionate for Hurka are positive responses like pleasure or enjoyment. This account requires accuracy in the sense that one’s responses must be accurately proportioned to the goodness of the object, but not in the sense that it requires accurate beliefs about one’s own good qualities.
