“Pride helps us; and pride is not a bad thing when it only urges us to hide our own hurts—not to hurt others.”
“We mortals, men and women, devour many a disappointment between breakfast and dinner-time; keep back the tears and look a little pale about the lips, and in answer to inquiries say, "Oh, nothing!" Pride helps; and pride is not a bad thing when it only urges us to hide our hurts— not to hurt others.”
“Pride isn't the thing that hurts us, it's the humility that pop's our bubble.”
“Pride is often used as a way to protect our hearts and to hide the truth. Pride causes us to shut down and build walls.”
“Our pride keeps us from breaking our pride. Our pride tells us we don't have pride issues.”
“Any pride or haughtiness, is displeasing to us, merely because it shocks our own pride, and leads us by sympathy into comparison, which causes the disagreeable passion of humility.”
