Criss Jami Quotes About Pride

• Time and time again does the pride of man influence his very own fall. While denying it, one gradually starts to believe that he is the authority, or that he possesses great moral dominion over others, yet it is spiritually unwarranted. By that point he loses steam; in result, he falsely begins trying to prove that unwarranted dominion by seizing the role of a condemner.

• Ocurre a menudo que el orgullo y el egoísmo se confunden con la fuerza y la independencia. No son ni iguales ni parecidos; de hecho, son polos opuestos. Un cobarde puede ser tan cobarde que enmascare su debilidad con una falsa personificación del poder. Tiene miedo de amar y de ser amado porque el amor tiende a desnudar todas las barricadas emocionales. Sin amor, la fuerza y la independencia tienden a perder todo su valor; se convierten en nada más que una tienda temerosa, intimidada y vacía, perdida en algún lugar del desierto del yo.

• It is the philosophers, theologians, and evangelists who are said to be filled with pride and bigotry due to the strong convictions that they represent. On the contrary, teachings can be either taken or dismissed; whereas voting is the only thing the average person can do to force everyone to live how they would prefer. A simple vote is among the largest yet most acceptable forms of bigotry, and that is because people play the card only when they feel that in doing so it conveniences themselves.
