“Pride attaches undue importance to the superiority of one's status in the eyes of others; And shame is fear of humiliation at one's inferior status in the estimation of others.

Lao Tzu
“Don't think of yourself as indispensable or infallible. As Charles De Gaulle said, the cemeteries of the world are full of indispensable men.”
Donald Rumsfeld
“You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.”
Buddha
