Category: Pride quotes

“Vanity and pride are different things, though the words are often used synonymously

Don’t take someone’s silence as his pride, perhaps he is busy

When I look back on my life, I see pain, mistakes and heart ache

You grow up so fast in high school. It’s not something you wait for

Don’t be too hard on yourself. There are plenty of people willing to do that for you.

“When you think everything is someone else’s fault, you will suffer a lot. When you realize that everything springs only from yourself

I could never understand ethnic or national pride. Because to me, pride should be reserved for something you achieve or attain on your own, not something that happens by accident of birth. Being Irish isn’t a skill, it’s a fucking genetic accident. You wouldn’t say “I’m proud to be 5’11”. I’m proud to have a predisposition for colon cancer.” So why the fuck would you be proud to be Irish, or proud to be Italian, or American or anything?
