the parent of many virtues (1 Viewer)

[taubstumm]

they that are proud in humility are proud in that they are not proud.

there is a paradox in pride: it makes some people ridiculous, but prevents others from becoming so.

pride gets no pleasure out of having something, only out of having more of it than the next person.

though pride is not a virtue, it is the parent of many virtues.

one of the best temporary cures for pride and affection is seasickness; a person who wants to vomit never puts on airs.

 

[Super Dexta]

what are you talking about?

p.s. the vomiting bit is true.
