Humility is not my forte, and whenever I dwell for any length of time on my own shortcomings, they gradually begin to seem mild, harmless, rather engaging little things, not at all like the staring defects in other people's characters.
Bulldogs have been known to fall on their swords when confronted by my superior tenacity.
In some circumstances, the refusal to be defeated is a refusal to be educated.
