Pride

Pride: Part and parcel of the fallability of man. It is hamartia, no two ways about it!

Pride comes before a fall.
Pride is taking less than you need.
Pride is the bottom of all great mistakes.
Pride makes us artificial, and humility makes us real.
The truest characters of ignorance are vanity, pride and arrogance.




I'll be lying if I said I'm enjoying this, but my resilient pride will always come first. Regrettably. So I'll stubbornly cling onto it, and deceive myself into believe it'll be a worthwhile companion as next best alternative for now.
