Pride's Subtleties
A good reminder for those of us in pursuit of theologically-kindled joy (strawberry-rhubarb theology):
"Pride is hard to subdue, and none so hard as the joint pride of piety and learning, and where men have made painful effort to eradicate their pride they may become inordinately proud of their humility."
--G. F. Moore, Judaism in the First Centuries of the Christian Era, 2:275
