"In reality, there is, perhaps, no one of our natural passions so hard to subdue
as pride. Disguise it, struggle with it, beat it down, stifle it, mortify it as much as
one pleases, it is still alive, and will every now and then peep out and show itself;
you will see it, perhaps, often in this history; for, even if I could conceive that I
had completely overcome it, I should probably be proud of my humility." --Benjamin Franklin
