FastSaying

If someone didn’t have any pride, wouldn’t they also be lacking in self-confidence therefore, void of any sense of self worth? If someone was completely free of greed, wouldn’t they have trouble supporting their family or lacking in any sense of driving motivation? And if people didn’t envy one another, wouldn’t they stop inventing new things and ultimately stop progression?
