Power doesn't have to show off. Power is confident, self-assuring, self-starting and self-stopping, self-warming and self-justifying. When you have it, you know it. -Ralph Ellison
I am not ashamed of my grandparents for having been slaves. I am only ashamed of myself for having at one time been ashamed.
I see you, Ralph.
The antidote to hubris, to overweening pride, is irony, that capacity to discover and systematize ideas. Or, as Emerson insisted, the development of consciousness, consciousness, consciousness.
