Maybe... Though that would conflict with self assertiveness (which is sometimes considered a virtue).

One thought (the 'golden mean') is that virtues are moderate positions between two vices. So, for example, courage (a virtue) is a midpoint between cowardice (a vice) and foolishness (a vice). Similarly some might consider selflessness to be one extreme and selfishness to be another extreme and for there to be self assertiveness which is somewhere around the golden mean...
