I could easily forgive his pride, if he had not mortified mine.
Vanity and pride are different things, though the words are often used synonymously. A person may be proud without being vain. Pride relates more to our opinion of ourselves, vanity to what we would have others think of us.
I would always rather be happy than dignified.
The 2012 London Olympics were supposed to restore British National pride. £20 billion to restore British National pride? For £20 billion, we could have written 'F*CK OFF GERMANY' on the moon.
Close some Doors. Not because of Pride, but because they no longer fit your Life. ” ~ Paulo Coelho
In any kind of negotiation, your ability to walk away is your strongest tool.
And nothing to look backward to with pride, And nothing to look forward to with hope.
