> Nothing diminishes the dignity of a man quite like an insult to his pride

This makes me realize how much the notion of “pride” applied to people feels such a dirty word by today’s standards.

Being proud of something, having pride in doing something is highly valued. Pride towards ourself is ridden with corrosive imagery from the cold war area, undue self boasting and narcism. I am happy with humility and openness becoming a better valued trait.
