Man ought to be ashamed of being proud, seeing that God was humbled for his sake.
— Augustine of Hippo
The most effective poison to lead men to ruin is to boast in themselves, in their own wisdom and will power.
John Calvin
Remember that pride is the worst viper that is in the heart, and the greatest disturber of the soul’s peace and sweet communion with Christ. Pride was the first sin that ever was. Pride is the most difficult sin to root out. It is the most hidden, secret and deceitful of all lusts, and often creeps in, insensibly, into the midst of religion and sometimes under the disguise of humility!
— Jonathan Edwards
