The bearer of Qur`ān must be recognized by his nights when people are sleeping. And by his days when people are eating, by his sadness when people are joyous, by his tears when people are laughing, by his silence when people are arguing, and by his humbleness when people are easily offended.
ʿAbdullāh ibn Masʿūd, in:
التبيان في آداب حملة القرآن لإمام النووي
....this hit me hard T_T *crumbles into pieces* :/
