What is pride? A rocket that emulates the stars.
William Wordsworth
Image
A human best, which is very little. Its hard to accept the idea that there cannot be an order in the universe because it would offend the free will of God and His omnipotence. So the freedom of God is our condemnation, or at least the condemnation of our pride.
Umberto Eco
Image
A soul so pitiably forlorn, If such do on this earth abide, May season apathy with scorn, May turn indifference to pride And still be not unblest- compared With him who grovels, self-debarred From all that lies within the scope Of holy faith and christian hope Or, shipwrecked, kindles on the coast False fires, that others may be lost.
William Wordsworth
Image
The pride never leads, never submits, and never leaves.
Akiane Kramarik
Image
all the vices are seasoned with pride just as the virtues are seasoned and enlivened by charity.
St. Catherine of Siena
Image
There are 2 sorts of pride: one in which we approve others, the other in which we cannot accept ourselves.
Henri Frederic Amiel

To be a man is, precisely, to be responsible. It is to feel shame at the sight of what seems to be unmerited misery. It is to take pride in a victory won by one's comrades. It is to feel, when setting one's stone, that one is contributing to the building of the world.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Image

Ai-jen Poo
Image
You were a stray cat, strutting so free and full of pride. But I could see your open wound. And without really thinking I just chalked it up to another cool thing about you. I never realized how much you hurt.
Ai Yazawa
Image
The dictator, in all his pride, is held in the grip of his party machine. He can go forward he cannot go back. He must blood his hounds and show them sport, or else, like Actaeon of old, be devoured by them. All-strong without, he is all-weak within.
Winston Churchill
Image
It's a moment that I will be asked about for the rest of my life as an actor, and I carry that moment with pride, that Rita [in Dexter] had such an impact and that it was such a gut-wrenching moment for audience members.
Julie Benz
Image
Vanity is a relative of Pride Vanity is talkative, pride is silent. When Vanity and Pride get together, they could make monstrosities.
Samael Aun Weor
Image
But who can describe the overweening pride of men? Or women mad with passion, reckless in their hearts, soulmates to every kind of ruin that befalls us? Wild passion, unrestrained, boundless, that overcomes the women, perverts the yoke of wedlock for beasts and men alike.
Aeschylus
Image
Human prosperity never rests but always craves more, till blown up with pride it totters and falls. From the opulent mansions pointed at by all passers-by none warns it away, none cries, 'Let no more riches enter!'.
Aeschylus
Image
Let it be your pride to show all men everywhere not only what good soldiers you are, but also what good men you are.
Woodrow Wilson
Image
The English certainly and fiercely pride themselves in never praising themselves.
Wyndham Lewis
Image
I work hard on my defense. It's something I take pride in, but it's nothing that I want to brag about. It's part of my game.
Adrian Beltre
Image
A true disciple inquires not whether a fact is agreeable to his own reason.His pride has yielded to the divine testimony.

Pride in one's own race - and that does not imply contempt for other races - is ... a normal and healthy sentiment.
Adolf Hitler
Image
Pride and excess bring disaster for man.
Xunzi

Life keeps getting better. If anything, you start to carry a certain pride in having survived all those years.
Yoko Ono
Image
The grand obstacle to the salvation of the scribes and Pharisees was their pride, vanity and self-love. They lived on each other's praise. If they had acknowledged Christ as the only good teacher, they must have given up the good opinion of the multitude and they chose rather to lose their souls than to forfeit their reputation among men!
Adam Clarke
Image
Pride works frequently under a dense mask, and will often assume the garb of humility.
