Don't compare yourself with anyone in this world... If you do so, you are insulting yourself.

Bill Gates

There are two kinds of pride, both good and bad. 'Good pride' represents our dignity and self-respect. 'Bad pride' is the deadly sin of superiority that reeks of conceit and arrogance.

John C. Maxwell

Pride gets no pleasure out of having something, only out of having more of it than the next man.

C. S. Lewis

Make your interests gradually wider and more impersonal, until bit by bit the walls of the ego recede, and your life becomes increasingly merged in the universal life.

Bertrand Russell

Ego takes everything personally.

Eckhart Tolle

Whoever envies another confesses his superiority.

Samuel Johnson
