My intellect and wisdom is as that of a child compared to the great minds and thoughts presented here daily.

I think "false" humility is actually real humility that has not been realized fully yet. 
--------------------
“Strengthened by contemplation and study,
I will not fear my passions like a coward.
My body I will give to pleasures,
to diversions that I’ve dreamed of,
to the most daring erotic desires,
to the lustful impulses of my blood, without
any fear at all, for whenever I will—
and I will have the will, strengthened
as I’ll be with contemplation and study—
at the crucial moments I’ll recover
my spirit as was before: ascetic.”

Welcome evermore to gods and men is the self-helping man. For him all doors are flung wide: him all tongues greet, all honors crown, all eyes follow with desire. Our love goes out to him and embraces him, because he did not need it.

Since becomming fully enlightened, I've realised that there is great wisdom to be found in even the smallest of minds.

There is no "fully enlightened," there are only degrees, you can keep going up forever ^_^ I dunno whether or not you were kidding, (God I hope not), but there it is, in case you weren't =P
I'm awesome because I use smileys as punctuation =D
I have no humility ^^
