Pride and humility, aphorism 188, The Mechanics of Virtue, Matt Berry

188


Pride and humility are opposites?  But so are “masters” and “servants.”  As an observed event master and servant are conditioned by each other and are no more opposites than a stream is the opposite of its own banks.  Righteous humility is not the opposite of arrogance but the redirection of a frustrated pride.
