“Pride gets no pleasure out of possessing something but, possessing more of it than the next man…It is the comparison that makes you proud: the pleasure of being above the rest. Once the element of competition has gone, pride has gone.” (C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity, pp. 109-110 as taken from Latter-day Commentary on the Book of Mormon compiled by K. Douglas Bassett, p. 400)
Ezra Taft Benson
“The two groups who seem to have the greatest difficulty with pride are the learned and the rich.” (Conference Report, Apr. 1986, p. 6 as taken from Latter-day Commentary on the Book of Mormon compiled by K. Douglas Bassett, p. 401)
