A man who has humility will have acquired in the last reaches of his beliefs the saving doubt of his own certainty.
Walter Lippmann
Image
God Himself heals the proud. This means that inner sorrows (by which pride is healed) are sent to us by God, for the proud man will not suffer anything from others. But the humble person will endure everything, and will always say, 'I deserve this.'
Ambrose of Optina
Image
OBLIVION, n. Cold storage for high hopes. A place where ambitious authors meet their works without pride and their betters without envy. A dormitory without an alarm clock.

Image
A mother's pride, a father's joy.
Walter Scott
Image
High minds, of native pride and force, Most deeply feel thy pangs, Remorse Fear, for their scourge, means villains have, Thou art the torturer of the brave!
Walter Scott
Image
Come forth, old man,--thy daughter's side Is now the fitting place for thee: When time has quell'd the oak's bold pride, The youthful tendril yet may hide, The ruins of the parent tree.
Walter Scott

The new Bournville College is not only a magnificent building and a great landmark but a source of pride for Longbridge and its communities. The College will no doubt help provide the education, skills and confidence that is so desperately needed to uplift and develop the lives of so many living in Longbridge and surrounding areas.

Humans tend to start the process of change by acknowledging themselves. Thus blacks asserted black pride and 'black is beautiful' women declared 'I am woman, I am strong' men are saying 'I am man, I am okay.' After a quarter of a century of male bashing, that's not a bad start.

God made us and God is able to empower us to do whatever he calls us to do. Denying that we can accomplish God's work is not humility it is the worst kind of pride.
Warren W. Wiersbe

Often Satan injects pride into the believer's spirit, evoking in him an attitude of self-importance and of self-conceit. He causes him to esteem himself a very outstanding person, one who is indispensable in God's work. Such a spirit constitutes one of the major reasons for the fall of believers.
Watchman Nee

I don't look to a man to get pride in myself. It's not about having a black president, it's about having a good president, and I think that's the most important thing.
Allen West
Image
I like the image of The Old Man and the Sea, of striving and succeeding but finding that the success was ghost success. In other words, in the long run, after a certain age, the motives for success, pride or oppressing people or getting power.
Allen Ginsberg
Image
Would anyone choose Hell over Heaven? YES! Why? Pride. They don't want to go in the only way you can go in, on your knees. They don't want to admit they are a failure, that their life is a mess.
Alistair Begg

I am a Jew. Those are four words of pride. My Jewishness is as deep as my genes.
Michael Douglas
Image
All goes back to the earth, and so I do not desire pride of excess or power, but the contentments made by men who have had little: the fisherman's silence receiving the river's grace, the gardener's musing on rows.
Wendell Berry
Image
I always wanted to be a journeyman actor. I wanted to be able to do comedy and drama, classical and contemporary. I like to do film and theater. And I pride myself on that diversity of being a journeyman actor.
Wendell Pierce
Image
I would say I'm a nice person, and I take pride in the fact that I treat everyone really well, so there's no reason for anyone to ever come at me because I only want the best for everybody else.
Miley Cyrus

We've got a lot of guys in here that are playing for pride and contracts and different things. Now that we are out of the race, guys are playing looser and you can see it in our play.
Wes Walz

My sign is Leo. A Leo has to walk with pride. When he takes a step, he has to put his foot down. You walk into a room and you want people to know your presence, without you doing anything.
Wesley Snipes
Image
People are often shy to acknowledge that they are Bengalis. They somehow take pride in saying that they cannot speak or read the language.

Image
Two things cause people to be destroyed: fear of poverty and seeking superiority through pride.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
Image
Had there not been five bad qualities, all the people would have been righteous. Contentment with ignorance love for worldly life miserliness inspite of much wealth ostentation in (good) deeds and pride in their own intelligence.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
