• Ningún grupo de la iglesia que conoce la guerra espiritual tiene asados de salchichas o incluso juegos de pasión. Hay una verdadera guerra. Ya he dicho antes que somos un grupo de creyentes arrogantes y autoproclamados. Nosotros "creemos" hasta el punto de inconveniencia - y luego renunciamos.

  Leonard Ravenhill

• I want to fall on the floor laughing - imagining Hillary Clinton working well in the Senate with everybody else! Oh, give me a break. I've already joked in print that they would need to build her a private cloakroom on the Mall. This is not a woman who has any ability to deal with the mass of humanity. She is the most arrogant, the most moralistic, the most sermonizing and annoying person on earth.

  Camille Paglia

• ¿De qué sirve la música? De nada... y esa es la cuestión. Al mundo y a sus estados y ejércitos y fábricas y dirigentes, la música les dice: "Sois irrelevantes"; y, arrogante y gentil como un dios, al hombre que sufre sólo le dice: "Escuchad". Porque salvarse no es lo importante. La música no salva nada. Misericordiosa, indiferente, niega y derriba todos los refugios, las casas que los hombres se construyen para poder ver el cielo.

• A menudo se comprueba que la modestia y la humildad no sólo no hacen ningún bien, sino que son positivamente perjudiciales, cuando se muestran a los arrogantes que han tomado un prejuicio contra ti, ya sea por envidia o por cualquier otra causa.

• This is the face of our political class: arrogant, authoritarian, and on the level of some banana republic south of the border. Welcome to the New America, where leader-worship has taken the place of politics, Team Red and Team Blue battle it out to see who gets to be El Supremo for the next four years, and politics resembles a prolonged soccer game.

• It must be a very dour and pessimistic astronomer indeed who seriously doubts that there must be countless numbers of intelligent civilizations scattered throughout the universe on other planets which are orbiting around other stars. An attitude which asserts that man is the only intelligent life form in the universe is intolerably arrogant today ... anyone who holds such an opinion today is, fortunately for those who like to see some progress in human conceptions, something of an intellectual freak equivalent to a believer in the Flat Earth Theory.

• Self-righteousness and presumptive moral judgments pose a great danger in the political arena. To become convinced of the divine infallibility of one's personal predilections on a secular political issue is to play God, to assume to oneself the attributes of deity. It cultivates an arrogant intolerance of dissenting viewpoints and relegates one's political adversaries to the category of evil per se.

• Two hundred years ago the forces of freedom challenged this idea. The children of the new enlightenment rose up to defy the tyranny of arrogant clergy and the censorship of pious bureaucrats. They boldly proclaimed that the state must be free from religious coercion and that religion must be free from state control. All individuals have the right to pursue the dictates of their own conscience. All citizens even have the right not to be religious at all.

• Nothing is so convenient as a decisive argument ... which must at least silence the most arrogant bigotry and superstition, and free us from their impertinent solicitations. I flatter myself, that I have discovered an argument ... which, if just, will, with the wise and learned, be an everlasting check to all kinds of superstitious delusion, and consequently, will be useful as long as the world endures. For so long, I presume, will the accounts of miracles and prodigies be found in all history, sacred and profane.

• Probablemente hay algo conservador enterrado dentro de mí, saliendo como un pequeño gremlin en mi vientre que he reprimido. Este es un tipo de personaje que he hecho antes: Es un poco tonto y arrogante, y un poco sórdido. Un poco cocainómano. Se ha metido cocaína o ha tomado demasiado café. Ha sido bastante divertido. No todas las canciones son así, pero se cuela por ahí.

• Because we men have been physically stronger and more arrogant, weve influenced much of the cool stuff of the world, like basing the definition of courage on what we do on battlefields rather than on the patience or endurance or tolerance necessary for a sometimes painful daily grind that includes small children.

• You are at the same time arrogant and self-loathing. You are a puzzle. But the ancient truth remains: as the light grows dimmer, things begin to become harder to see. I came to love you in time, but I feared the dark side as well. I still do. You have tremendous potential, potential for joy or hate, light or dark, life or death. But in the end, you choose. What a gift, what a joy to witness.

  Glenn Beck
