Confidence turns into pride only when you are in denial of your mistakes.

There are two circumstances that lead to arrogance: one is when you're wrong and you can't face it; the other is when you're right and nobody else can face it.

My confidence is in the idea that I may be wrong on this or that. No man in this life should ever have to bear the burden of perfection.

Silence might be a shout for the truth. It might be the speech that someday, in its truest, most uncontaminated, unadulterated state, all will be revealed.

Knowing the truth is so minuscule compared to having the nerve to say it...and even more to live it.

I imagine that the intelligent people are the ones so intelligent that they don't even need or want to look 'intelligent' anymore.

The hardest thing for a sane person to do is not care what anyone thinks, although everyone swears by it, hence our glorification of insanity.

Reason begets honesty, and honesty, if given its head, begets confidence; so consequently, there is a sort of grand authority in the stances of those who know why they are standing.

I'm not offended until you think I'm offended.
