pride

When we let go of our pride, we give ourselves permission to be human. We give ourselves permission to slip up and hurt and to grow without ridiculous standards of perfection constantly looming over our heads. We give ourselves a chance to face conflicts, to face ourselves, and to heal. And, in this healing process, we give others a chance to follow our lead.

I watched the spinning stars, grateful, sad and proud, as only a man who has outlived his destiny and realizes he might yet forge himself another, can be.

Every woman that finally figured out her worth, has picked up her suitcases of pride and boarded a flight to freedom, which landed in the valley of change.

Shatter your pride in dust to vanish into the joy of longing and love.

In general, poor is polite and rich is rude.

Passion makes you good, but pride stops you to get better.

Too many people spend money they haven't earned, to buy things they don't want, to impress people that they don't like.

Anger gets you into trouble, ego keeps you in trouble.

Patriotism is the narcissism of countries.

Talk is cheap for the man who boasts his worth, you don't have to take my word to know who i am.

This very pride in keeping his word was that he was keeping it to miscreants. It was his last triumph over these lunatics to go down into their dark room and die for something that they could not even understand. The barrel-organ seemed to give the marching tune with the energy and the mingled noises of a whole orchestra; and he could hear deep and rolling, under all the trumpets of the pride of life, the drums of the pride of death.

Let him submit to me! Only the god of death is so relentless, Death submits to no one__o mortals hate him most of all the gods. Let him bow down to me! I am the greater king, I am the elder-born, I claim__he greater man.

Silence is a lie that screams at the light.

It was not my intention to collapse; no, I would die standing.

My father told me once that the most important thing every man should know is what he would die for.

Greatest irony of life is living in self glory while glorifying God which is the ultimate joy is left behind.

What "wasting time" means? At the time we glorify self instead of glorify God, at that time we are wasting our time as... God is Time.

Biggest tragedy of life is when God ask us to glorify Him for our sakes but we choose to glorify self for satan's good.
