Pride
Today the revelation occurred to me that Pride, or self- conceit, is the well-spring of all other vices, the father of all other sins, and the roots of all that is morally corrupt. No one is without pride. Everyone loathes it when it is seen in someone else; and hardly any people even imagine that they are guilty of it themselves.
I dont really feel like expanding much more on the subject.
These particular thoughts were especially uneasy to swallow.
