A wife's charm delights her husband, and her skill puts fat on his bones. Like the sun rising in the heights of the Lord so is the beauty of a good wife in her well-ordered home. Like the shining lamp on the holy lamp stand, so is a beautiful face on a stately figure - Sirach 26:13

Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things. - Php 4:8

Pride

'Pride is at the bottom of all worldliness:  that desire that drives people to attain more and more things, more and more honour, more and more glory, of having the whole world revolve around themselves.  Disobedience, rudeness, the lack of compassion toward our neighbour, all of this is pride.  Selfishness is an effect of pride.'  - Mother Angelica's Little Book of Life Lessons and Everyday Spirituality
S. Saelig Gallagher - The Selfish Giant by Oscar Wilde
