The proud man, then, is an extreme in respect of the greatness of his claims, but a mean in respect of the rightness of them; for he claims what is accordance with his merits, while the others go to excess or fall short. ~ Aristotle.
Pride Humility quotes by Aristotle.
There never can have been, and never can be, and there never shall be any sin without pride. ~ Saint Augustine
Pride Humility quotes by Saint Augustine
It is an illusion to worry about pride without having those things that may predispose someone to fall into the trap of pride... ~ Assegid Habtewold
Pride Humility quotes by Assegid Habtewold
If one takes pride in one's craft, you won't let a good thing die. Risking it through not pushing hard enough is not a humility. ~ Paul Keating
Pride Humility quotes by Paul Keating
Humility has nothing to do with depreciating ourselves and our gifts in ways we know to be untrue. Even "humble" attitudes can be masks of pride. Humility is that freedom from our self which enables us to be in positions in which we have neither recognition nor importance, neither power nor visibility, and even experience deprivation, and yet have joy and delight. It is the freedom of knowing that we are not in the center of the universe, not even in the center of our own private universe. ~ David F. Wells
Pride Humility quotes by David F. Wells
Pride perceiving humility honorable, often borrows her cloak. ~ Thomas Fuller
Pride Humility quotes by Thomas Fuller
Never be haughty to the humble, never be humble to the haughty. ~ Mark Twain
Pride Humility quotes by Mark Twain
Holy humility confounds pride and all the men of this world and all things that are in the world. ~ Francis Of Assisi
Pride Humility quotes by Francis Of Assisi
Recognizing your talents doesn't mean believing they're limitless. Accepting your strengths doesn't lead to pride, but instead to humility; you're less likely to resent what others have if you understand your own bounty. ~ Gina Barreca
Pride Humility quotes by Gina Barreca
The position of the artist is humble. He is essentially a channel.
Piet Mondrian
The Artist's Way A Spiritual Path to Greater Creativity by Julia Cameron ~ Piet Mondrian
Pride Humility quotes by Piet Mondrian
God made us and God is able to empower us to do whatever he calls us to do. Denying that we can accomplish God's work is not humility; it is the worst kind of pride. ~ Warren W. Wiersbe
Pride Humility quotes by Warren W. Wiersbe
Men sometimes feel injured by praise because it assigns a limit to their merit; few people are modest enough not to take offense that one appreciates them. ~ Luc De Clapiers
Pride Humility quotes by Luc De Clapiers
I stand on this rostrum with a sense of deep humility and great pride - humility in the weight of those great American architects of our history who have stood here before me; pride in the reflection that this home of legislative debate represents human liberty in the purest form yet devised. ~ Douglas MacArthur
Pride Humility quotes by Douglas MacArthur
God cannot be realizxd if there is the slightest trace of pride. ~ Ramakrishna
Pride Humility quotes by Ramakrishna
Humility is not disgraceful, and carries no loss of true pride. ~ Ernest Hemingway,
Pride Humility quotes by Ernest Hemingway,
Pride works frequently under a dense mask, and will often assume the garb of humility. ~ Adam Clarke
Pride Humility quotes by Adam Clarke
He was too simple to wonder when he had attained humility. But he knew he had attained it and he knew it was not disgraceful and it carried no loss of true pride. ~ Ernest Hemingway,
Pride Humility quotes by Ernest Hemingway,
Love's humility is love's true pride. ~ Bayard Taylor
Pride Humility quotes by Bayard Taylor
False humility is more insulting than open pride! ~ Brandon Mull
Pride Humility quotes by Brandon Mull
Where God's Spirit does not reign, there is no humility, and men ever swell with inward pride. ~ John Calvin
Pride Humility quotes by John Calvin
A man who lifts his chin in pride will fail to see the chasm at his feet. ~ Alison Goodman
Pride Humility quotes by Alison Goodman
Power is fortified not just by what it destroys, but also by what it creates. Not just by what it takes, but also by what it gives. And powerlessness reaffirmed not just by the helplessness of those who have lost, but also by the gratitude of those who have (or THINK they have) gained. ~ Arundhati Roy
Pride Humility quotes by Arundhati Roy
In an ideal world, nobody's work would be just about the money. People could pursue excellence in what they do, take pride in achievement, and derive meaning from knowing that their work improved the lives of others. ~ Barry Schwartz
Pride Humility quotes by Barry Schwartz
Through our maps, we willingly become a part of their boundaries. If our home is included, we feel pride, perhaps familiarity, but always a sense that this is ours. If it is not, we accept our roles as outsiders, though we may be of the same mind and culture. In this way, maps can be dangerous and powerful tools. ~ Debbie Lee Wesselmann
Pride Humility quotes by Debbie Lee Wesselmann
Even the wisest people learn little from their successes; God warns His people against allowing their victories (which He will grant) to lead them into pride and spiritual indifference. Instead, they should pay close attention to God's Word. ~ Max Anders
Pride Humility quotes by Max Anders
I really understand the idea of pride and honour. I have that in my family, so I understand it completely. ~ Monique Coleman
Pride Humility quotes by Monique Coleman
The next day I received a phone call from Mr. Pride which began, "So, I heard you won Ho of the Year." Well when you put it like that it didn't sound like such an accomplishment. ~ Kate Madison
Pride Humility quotes by Kate Madison
The journey will be difficult. The road will be long. I face this challenge with profound humility, and knowledge of my own limitations. But I also face it with limitless faith in the capacity of the American people. ~ Barack Obama
Pride Humility quotes by Barack Obama
The more you forget yourself, the more Jesus will think of you. ~ Mother Teresa
Pride Humility quotes by Mother Teresa
Pride is more than the first of the seven deadly sins; it is itself the essence of all sin. ~ John Stott
Pride Humility quotes by John Stott
The infinitely little have a pride infinitely great. ~ Voltaire
Pride Humility quotes by Voltaire
An interesting proposal, but what if I decided to fuck you for the amusement of an audience? Or maybe have you pleasure all men in this room with your mouth, instead? Is the complete loss of your dignity and pride, worth the price?" The cup of champagne brushed my lips again, and I greedily sucked at it, throat bobbing with each provocative swallow. "Yes Master," I gasped. ~ Johnny Stone
Pride Humility quotes by Johnny Stone
I am an African. I am white. I, in my humble way, and others in their much more brave way, have earned that right. ~ Nadine Gordimer
Pride Humility quotes by Nadine Gordimer
It is not enough for theory to describe and analyze, it must itself be an event in the universe it describes. In order to do this theory must partake of and become the acceleration of this logic. It must tear itself from all referents and take pride only in the future. Theory must operate on time at the cost of a deliberate distortion of present reality. ~ Jean Baudrillard
Pride Humility quotes by Jean Baudrillard
In harmony with the Tao, the sky is clear and spacious, the earth is solid and full, all creature flourish together, content with the way they are, endlessly repeating themselves, endlessly renewed. When man interferes with the Tao, the sky becomes filthy, the earth becomes depleted, the equilibrium crumbles, creatures become extinct. The Master views the parts with compassion, because he understands the whole. His constant practice is humility. He doesn't glitter like a jewel but lets himself be shaped by the Tao, as rugged and common as stone. ~ Laozi
Pride Humility quotes by Laozi
There is no greater evil than men's failure to consult and to consider. ~ Sophocles
Pride Humility quotes by Sophocles
The devil sees nothing more abominable than a truly humble christian, for [that Christian] is just the opposite of [the devil's] own image ~ Hans Nielsen Hauge
Pride Humility quotes by Hans Nielsen Hauge
Let us be absolutely clear about one thing: we must not confuse humility with false modesty or servility. ~ Paulo Coelho
Pride Humility quotes by Paulo Coelho
That was all he wanted. For her to see. Everything he said, everything he did; he
wanted her to see it. He didn't care about saving his pride anymore. He didn't care
about what would happen if their relationship ended. He didn't care about being
defenceless, completely exposed. He just wanted her to see, see everything, all of him.
Every weakness, every insecurity, he wanted her to see every vulnerable part of him.
"I love you," he whispered. - Max Shepard ~ Jacqueline Francis - Wanting To Remember, Trying To Forget
Pride Humility quotes by Jacqueline Francis - Wanting To Remember, Trying To Forget
Jesus was always on the front-lines washing dirty feet. Humility soon is shelved in ministry and we start thinking to much of ourselves. It is hard to effectively minister in Christ name when we look down on someone, but if we are washing their feet we look up to them giving them value and worth. ~ Jonah Books.com
Pride Humility quotes by Jonah Books.com
I have found that when I intentionally control my thoughts, walk humbly, love and forgive unconditionally, generally, I have a pretty good day. ~ Ford Taylor
Pride Humility quotes by Ford Taylor
Secular entertaining is a terrible bondage. Its source is human pride. Demanding perfection, fostering the urge to impress, it is a rigorous taskmaster which enslaves. In contrast, Scriptural hospitality is a freedom which liberates. ~ Karen Burton Mains
Pride Humility quotes by Karen Burton Mains
There is a Sufi story about a man who is so good that the angels ask God to give him the gift of miracles. God wisely tells them to ask him if that is what he would wish.

So the angels visit this good man and offer him first the gift of healing by hands, then the gift of conversion of souls, and lastly the gift of virtue. He refuses them all. They insist that he choose a gift or they will choose one for him. "Very well," he replies. "I ask that I may do a great deal of good without ever knowing it." The story ends this way:

The angels were perplexed. They took counsel and resolved upon the following plan: Every time the saint's shadow fell behind him it would have the power to cure disease, soothe pain, and comfort sorrow. As he walked, behind him the shadow made arid paths green, caused withered plants to bloom, gave clear water to dried up brooks, fresh color to pale children, and joy to unhappy men and women. The saint simply went about his daily life diffusing virtue as the stars diffuse light and the flowers scent, without ever being aware of it. The people respecting his humility followed him silently, never speaking to him about his miracles. Soon they even forgot his name and called him "the Holy Shadow. ~ Rachel Naomi Remen
Pride Humility quotes by Rachel Naomi Remen
That is why it is so important to let certain things go. To release them. To cut loose. People need to understand that no one is playing with marked cards; sometimes we win and sometimes we lose. Don't expect to get anything back, don't expect recognition for your efforts, don't expect your genius to be discovered or your love to be understood. Complete the circle. Not out of pride, inability or arrogance, but simply because whatever it is no longer fits in your life. Close the door, change the record, clean the house, get rid of the dust. Stop being who you were and become who you are. ~ Paulo Coelho
Pride Humility quotes by Paulo Coelho
No person is great in isolation. It takes many hands to shape a life. Denial would mean conceit, and conceit is not the same as self-respect. ~ Sweety Shinde
Pride Humility quotes by Sweety Shinde
Perish each thought of human pride, let God alone be magnified. ~ Philip Doddridge
Pride Humility quotes by Philip Doddridge
While you pretend to read with rapture the canon of your law in Nature, you want something quite the contrary, you extraordinary stage-players and self-deluders! In your pride you wish to dictate your morals and ideals to Nature, to Nature herself, and to incorporate them therein; you insist that it shall be Nature "according to the Stoa," and would like everything to be made after your own image, as a vast, eternal glorification and generalism of Stoicism! ~ Friedrich Nietzsche
Pride Humility quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
As for working with a partner, he didn't like that either. It cut the score right down the middle. It put an apple on your head, and handed the other guy a shotgun. Because grifters, it seemed, suffered an irresistible urge to beat their colleagues. There was little glory in whipping a fool - hell, fools were made to be whipped. But to take a professional, even if it cost you in the long run, ah, that was something to polish your pride. ~ Jim Thompson
Pride Humility quotes by Jim Thompson
Here's to the security guards who maybe had a degree in another land. Here's to the manicurist who had to leave her family to come here, painting the nails, scrubbing the feet of strangers. Here's to the janitors who don't understand English yet work hard despite it all. Here's to the fast food workers who work hard to see their family smile. Here's to the laundry man at the Marriott who told me with the sparkle in his eyes how he was an engineer in Peru. Here's to the bus driver, the Turkish Sufi who almost danced when I quoted Rumi. Here's to the harvesters who live in fear of being deported for coming here to open the road for their future generation. Here's to the taxi drivers from Nigeria, Ghana, Egypt and India who gossip amongst themselves. Here is to them waking up at 4am, calling home to hear the voices of their loved ones. Here is to their children, to the children who despite it all become artists, writers, teachers, doctors, lawyers, activists and rebels. Here's to international money transfer. For never forgetting home. Here's to their children who carry the heartbeats of their motherland and even in sleep, speak with pride about their fathers. Keep on. ~ Ijeoma Umebinyuo
Pride Humility quotes by Ijeoma Umebinyuo
Humility is not a one time lesson that comes when you have lost everything. It is a daily reminder of how far we have come, yet still short of who we can be through HIS guidance. Blessed is the soul that can recognize that he isn't moving mountains, but God is for him. ~ Shannon L. Alder
Pride Humility quotes by Shannon L. Alder
We pride ourselves on being the only species that understands the concept of risk, yet we have a confounding habit of worrying about mere possibilities while ignoring probabilities, building barricades against perceived dangers while leaving ourselves exposed to real ones. ~ Jeffrey Kluger
Pride Humility quotes by Jeffrey Kluger
Shortly after you left the room, Bushell came over and spoke to your father. I was not near enough to hear what he said, but Maria Lucas told me afterwards that he had been -' (she smiled) 'amazingly impertinent.'
'Peter actually spoke to Papa?'
'He did. According to Maria, he had the impudence to criticise Mr Bennet for his treatment of you. I must say it gives me the most favourable idea of his character. ~ Jennifer Paynter
Pride Humility quotes by Jennifer Paynter
All my life, I have loved and been inspired by French cinema, and as a studio head it has been my pride and joy to have the ability to bring movies to audiences around the world. ~ Harvey Weinstein
Pride Humility quotes by Harvey Weinstein
As a Buddhist, I was trained to be tolerant of everything except intolerance. I was brought up not only to develop the spirit of tolerance but also to cherish moral and spiritual qualities such as modesty, humility, compassion, and, most important, to attain a certain degree of emotional equilibrium. ~ U Thant
Pride Humility quotes by U Thant
There is not unmitigated ill in the sharpest of this world's sorrows; I touch not the sore of thy guilt; but of human griefs I counsel thee, Cast off the weakness of regret, and gird thee to redeem thy loss: Thou has gained, in the furnace of affliction, self-knowledge, patience and humility, And these be as precious ore, that waiteth the skill of the coiner: Despise not the blessings of adversity, nor the gain thou hast earned so hardly, And now thou hast drained the bitter, take heed that thou lose not the sweet. ~ Martin Farquhar Tupper
Pride Humility quotes by Martin Farquhar Tupper
The proud cannot accept the authority of God giving direction to their lives. (See Helaman 12:6.) They pit their perceptions of truth against God's great knowledge, their abilities versus God's priesthood power, and their accomplishments against His mighty works. ~ Ezra Taft Benson
Pride Humility quotes by Ezra Taft Benson
One' is not a doer in this world. Where he believes that he is the doer, there is 'charging' (of karma). When one tastes egoistic pride of, "I did this samayik, I did these activities", he will 'charge' (karma). The taste of egoistic pride is very sweet. ~ Dada Bhagwan
