Patristic Quote for the Day

For while all vices manifest themselves in wrongdoing, pride lurks also in our good works, seeking to destroy even them. - St. Augustine, *The Rule* 1.7

God's hatred for pride is so strong that he would rather see humility in evil deeds than pride in good deeds. - St. Augustine, *Sermon on Psalm 93* par. 15
