• Si leemos repetidamente la Biblia sin la ayuda del Espíritu Santo, tendemos a reforzar nuestros propios prejuicios y nuestras posiciones doctrinales. Terminamos simplemente encontrando munición para lo que ya creemos. Nos volvemos tan orgullosos espiritualmente, tan convencidos de nuestras propias posiciones, que el Espíritu se ve impedido de ayudarnos a crecer en las cosas de Dios.

• Un rey es un dios mortal en la tierra, a quien el Dios viviente ha prestado su propio nombre como un gran honor; pero también le ha dicho que debe morir como un hombre, para que no se enorgullezca y se haga ilusiones de que Dios, con su nombre, le ha impartido también su naturaleza. JOHN LOCKE, "De un Rey", La Conducta del Entendimiento: Essays, Moral, Economical, and Political Un rey puede ser una herramienta, una cosa de paja; pero si sirve para asustar a nuestros enemigos, y asegurar nuestra propiedad, está bien: un espantapájaros es una cosa de paja, pero protege el maíz.

• Los estados financieros de fin de año expresan una verdad sobre la vida en la oficina que no es menos irrefutable pero tampoco, al final, menos irrelevante o irritante que el orgulloso recordatorio de un biólogo evolucionista de que el propósito de la existencia reside en la propagación de nuestros genes.

• Prostrate on earth the bleeding warrior lies,
  And Isr'el's beauty on the mountains dies.
  How are the mighty fallen!
  Hush'd be my sorrow, gently fall my tears,
  Lest my sad tale should reach the alien's ears:
  Bid Fame be dumb, and tremble to proclaim
  In heathen Gath, or Ascalon, our shame
  Lest proud Philistia, lest our haughty foe,
  With impious scorn insult our solemn woe.

• The example of America must be the example not merely of peace because it will not fight, but of peace because peace is the healing and elevating influence of the world, and strife is not. There is such a thing as a man being too proud to fight. There is such a thing as a nation being so right that it does not need to convince others by force that it is right.

• Man's birth is a lottery; it may be in the pleasant home of ease and affluence, or in the hut of poverty; in either case it may be a stain or an honor. If he is born in poverty, and his future life throws a lustre over an humble birth, the reward will not only be great, but his name will stand higher on the roll of honor and virtue, than he who can only boast of his proud descent.

  James Ellis

• Sobre este país, cuando el Águila gigante lanza la sombra de su ala, la tierra se oscurece. Tan compacta es que el ala cubre toda su extensión en una pausa del vuelo. El mar rompe en la línea pálida de la orilla; a la mirada orgullosa del Águila las olas corren al pie de las colinas que son como rocas plantadas en el agua verde.

• There's a place in the world for the angry young man
  With his working class ties and his radical plans
  He refuses to bend, he refuses to crawl
  He's always at home with his back to the wall
  And he's proud of his scars and the battles he's lost
  And he struggles and bleeds as he hangs on the cross
  And he likes to be known as the angry young man.
