What are you most proud of? The Bible scorns the idea of pride (Proverbs 16:18, Pride goeth before destruction, Proverbs 11:2, When pride cometh, then cometh shame.). But Aristotle (a much wiser man than the author of Proverbs...) sees pride as a virtue. He distinguishes it from arrogance in that to feel pride is to have a rational evaluation of yourself. Arrogance is feeling proud of yourself when there is no justification to do so.
