Pride Quotes

I dedicate my love and whole heart this Memorial Day to my dad, a soldier, who like many others, suffers in silence with pride and honor Picture Quote #1

I’m not a man. I have no male pride for you to trick me with, and I am not interested in single combat. That is entirely a weakness of your sex, not mine. I am a woman. I will use any weapon and all weapons to get what I want Picture Quote #1

It is as proper to have pride in oneself as it ridiculous to show it to others Picture Quote #1

It is more often from pride than from ignorance that we are so obstinately opposed to current opinions; we find the first places taken, and we do not want to be the last Picture Quote #1

Closing cycles. Not because of pride, incapacity or arrogance, but simply because that no longer fits your life. Shut the door, change the record, clean the house, shake off the dust. Stop being who you were, and change into who you are Picture Quote #1

In order to obtain and hold power a man must love it. Thus the effort to get it is not likely to be coupled with goodness, but with the opposite qualities of pride, craft and cruelty Picture Quote #1

I really kind of pride myself on figuring stuff out pretty quickly but I couldn’t, couldn’t. I just had no idea Picture Quote #1

I pride myself on being a jerk, because I’m brutally honest all the time Picture Quote #1

Pride is more than the first of the seven deadly sins; it is itself the essence of all sin Picture Quote #1

A man may and ought to pride himself more on his will than on his talent Picture Quote #1

Desire is storm, greed is whirlpool, pride is precipice, attachment is avalanche, ego is volcano. Discard desire and you are liberated Picture Quote #1

Vain indeed is all overweening pride in the conquest even of the entire universe if one has not conquered one’s own passions Picture Quote #1

Pride works _from within_; it is the direct appreciation of oneself. Vanity is the desire to arrive at this appreciation indirectly, from without Picture Quote #1

If we do not know ourselves to be full of pride, ambition, lust, weakness, misery, and injustice, we are indeed blind. And if, knowing this, we do not desire deliverance, what can we say of a man...? Picture Quote #1

We often pride ourselves on even the most criminal passions, but envy is a timid and shamefaced passion we never dare to acknowledge Picture Quote #1

I don’t mind being cast as some kind of a pantomime baddie, but I am very fair in business. I always have been. I pride myself on being fair Picture Quote #1

The walls of pride are high and wide, can’t see over to the other side Picture Quote #1

Why bear malice? Just let it go. So what of pride? It will swallow you whole Picture Quote #1

Pride slays thanksgiving, but a humble mind is the soil out of which thanks naturally grow. A proud man is seldom a grateful man, for he never thinks he gets as much as he deserves Picture Quote #1

Anyone who has read my books will know that I don’t tend to use guides when I am travelling. It’s not a pride thing, but it is certainly a fact Picture Quote #1

However energetically society in general may strive to make all the citizens equal and alike, the personal pride of each individual will always make him try to escape from the common level, and he will form some inequality somewhere to his own profit Picture Quote #1

The peril of every fine faculty is the delight of playing with it for pride. Talent is commonly developed at the expense of character, and the greater it grows, the more is the mischief. Talent is mistaken for genius, a dogma or system for truth, ambition for greatness, ingenuity for poetry, sensuality for art Picture Quote #1

When once a man has made celebrity necessary to his happiness, he has put it in the power of the weakest and most timorous malignity, if not to take away his satisfaction, at least to withhold it. His enemies may indulge their pride by airy negligence and gratify their malice by quiet neutrality Picture Quote #1

Friends and neighbors complain that taxes are indeed very heavy, and if those laid on by the government were the only ones we had to pay, we might the more easily discharge them; but we have many others, and much more grievous to some of us. We are taxed twice as much by our idleness, three times as much by our pride, and four times as much by our folly Picture Quote #1

The poet’s, the writer’s, duty is to write about these things. It is his privilege to help man endure by lifting his heart, by reminding him of the courage and honor and hope and pride and compassion and pity and sacrifice which have been the glory of his past. The poet’s voice need not merely be the record of man, it can be one of the props, the pillars to help him endure and prevail Picture Quote #1
