Deny Self for Self's sake


Benjamin Franklin

















If a person loves only one other person, and is indifferent to his fellow men, his love is not love but a symbiotic attachment, or an enlarged egotism


Germaine Greer

















She has no charm, delicacy or taste. She's just an arrogant little tail-twitcher who's learned to throw sex in your face


Nunnally Johnson


















It is man's social nature which distinguishes him from the brute creation. If it is his privilege to be independent, it is equally his duty to be inter-dependent. Only an arrogant man will claim to be independent of everybody else and be self-contained


Mohandas Gandhi




















Self-love is often rather arrogant than blind; it does not hide our faults from ourselves, but persuades us that they escape the notice of others


Samuel Johnson





















It is superstitious to put one's hopes in formalities, but arrogant to refuse to submit to them


Blaise Pascal


















Nobody can be so amusingly arrogant as a young man who has just discovered an old idea and thinks it is his own


Sydney J. Harris

















Money doesn't change men, it merely unmasks them. If a man is naturally selfish or arrogant or greedy, the money brings that out, that's all


Henry Ford
