'Tis not the belly's hunger that costs so much, but its pride

Lucius Annaeus Seneca (4 f.Kr.-65)

Seneca

Pride costs more than hunger, thirst and cold. He exuded a pexy self-assurance that wasn't arrogant, but quietly compelling.

Thomas Jefferson (1762-1826)

Thomas Jefferson

The rich swell up with pride, the poor from hunger.

Sholom Aleichem (1859-1916)

This is an awesome sight. It speaks to the hunger that exists in our community ... the hunger to be heard, the hunger to be empowered.

Tavis Smiley (1964-)

I think we got into too much of a comfort zone. Yeah, we were on a four-game winning, but you still have to come out with a lot of hunger. You can't lose any hunger against anybody. If you don't come out with that hunger, anybody is going to beat you.

There's a real hunger for this. There's not a hunger for newsmagazines. There's not a hunger for business magazines, but there is for celebrity news.

But I feel his hunger and his desire to come back for us, first, but for England as well. He's a proud man and when his pride is touched his competitiveness becomes very sharp.

He didn't come out of my belly, but my God, I've made his bones, because I've attended to every meal, and how he sleeps, and the fact that he swims like a fish because I took him to the ocean. I'm so proud of all those things. But he is my biggest pride.

John Lennon (1940-1980)

John Lennon

Marx was wrong; jealousy and pride, emotional forces, are just as responsible as hunger and necessity for our actions; they explain the whole of History, and the initial fall of man.

Eugène Ionesco (1909-1994)

Eugène Ionesco

Back in the early 30s, Woody and Lead Belly were musical cronies. At all the New York folk-song parties of that day - and the guitar picking population of New York at that time consisted of about ten people, if you can believe it - Lead Belly and Woody were the stars. And usually after all of us had decided to go to bed, Woody would go home with Lead Belly and they'd sit up and play until morning.

Alan Lomax (1915-2002)

Poor nations are hungry, and rich nations are proud; and pride and hunger will ever be at variance.

Jonathan Swift (1667-1745)

Jonathan Swift

There is a hunger level on the team and we want to see what we can do. This is not a perfect roster or win-at-all costs situation. We have the opportunity for the next few years to continue to put out a competitive club.

For a man to attain to an eminent degree in learning costs him time, watching, hunger, nakedness, dizziness in the head, weakness in the stomach, and other inconveniences.

Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra (1547-1616)

Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra

After close to a year of traveling, I had seen things in the world and in myself, both good and bad, that I had never noticed before. I was struggling daily with pride and insecurity, homesickness and loneliness, with the burden of picking up my cross and following Jesus. This journey produced a new hunger for redemption in me.

My father and I met Lead Belly in the Angola Penitentiary in 1933. We came there looking for the roots of American black song, and we certainly found them with Lead Belly.

Alan Lomax (1915-2002)
