Arrogance Quotes

The study of history is a powerful antidote to contemporary arrogance.

In this she was guilty of nothing more serious than the arrogance of youth, from which every generation suffers and by which it distinguishes itself from the preceding one Picture Quote #1

His mind scolded him for his stupidity and urged him to forget her but his heart had no justifications for its stand. It remained unmoved, its solidarity unaffected, its arrogance still holding Picture Quote #1

The arrogance of some of those who are so damned sure they are right is just astounding. Scientific witch hunts are often the worst kind, and have been since the secular authorities stopped enforcing the local bishop’s decrees of anathema Picture Quote #1

We are always seeking our opposite, whether we know it or not. When we discover what that is we can dissolve our arrogance Picture Quote #1

Opinions are not to be learned by rote, like the letters of an alphabet, or the words of a dictionary. They are conclusions to be formed, and formed by each individual in the sacred and free citadel of the mind, and there enshrined beyond the arm of law to reach, or force to shake; ay! and beyond the right of impertinent curiosity to violate, or presumptuous arrogance to threaten Picture Quote #1

I want an intelligent girl whom I can talk about everything. I want her to be my friend, to be partners. I don’t like when a girl is rough, but delicate and subtle. I like good manners and not rudeness nor arrogance Picture Quote #1

I’ll impose upon you the same arrogance that was imposed on me, and on my mother, my grandmother, my grandmother’s mother: all the way back to the first human born of another human being, whether he liked it or not. Probably, if he or she had been allowed to choose, he would have been frightened and answered: No, I don’t want to be born. But no one asked their opinion, and so they were born and lived and died after giving birth to another human being who was not asked to choose, and that one did likewise, for millions of years, right down to us Picture Quote #1

I like to think that my arrogance, impetuosity, impatience, selfishness and greed are the qualities that make me the lovable chap I am Picture Quote #1

And all have fallen short. That doesn’t mean some we’re definitely a part of that inclusive all Picture Quote #1

It is the pure arrogance of the newly rich and the newly powerful to think content is easy Picture Quote #1

There is an ultimate wildness in all this, for the universe, as existence itself, is a terrifying as well as a benign mode of being. If it grants us amazing powers over much of its functioning we must always remember that any arrogance on our part will ultimately be called to account.

We do not judge the universe Picture Quote #1

Let there be an end to the arrogance of the big powers who miss no opportunity to put the rights of the people in question. Africa’s absence from the club of those who have the right to veto is unjust and should be ended Picture Quote #1
