Through pride we are ever deceiving ourselves. But deep down below the surface of the average conscience a still, small voice says to us, something is out of tune.

Carl Jung

There is no one who would not rather appear to know than to be taught.

Quintilian

Ingratitude is the daughter of pride.

Miguel de Cervantes

Pride is an independent, me-oriented spirit. It makes people arrogant, rude and hard to get along with. When our heart is prideful, we don't give God the credit and we mistreat people, looking down on them and thinking we deserve what we have.

Joyce Meyer

The reward for conformity is that everyone likes you but yourself.

Rita Mae Brown

I don't care that they stole my idea. I care that they don't have any of their own.

Nikola Tesla
