("And now Israel, what does the LORD your God ask of you but to fear Him? — Regarding Moses our teacher, it is a minor matter (a small thing). Like a man from whom they ask a large vessel and he has one — it appears to him as a small vessel; if small and he does not have it, it appears to him as a large vessel" - Megillah 25a; and also: "Ben Azai says: All the sages of Israel are like the peel of an onion compared to me, except this Korach (Rabbi Akiva)!" - Bekhorot 58a; and also: "Nevertheless, it seemed to me that his whole essence returned to an event that had already happened to me" - Agnon / Ad Hineh, p.66; and also: "And yet it seemed to him that he saw with his eyes a spark of truth, and that the appearance of his face showed what was in his soul and heart" - Haim Sabato / Like the Flicker of Dawn, p.58)
