Luke 18:9
Douay-Rheims
And to some who trusted in themselves as just, and despised others, he spoke also this parable:
Gregory the Great
(19. Mor. c. 21.) So it was pride that laid bare to his wily enemies the citadel of his heart, which prayer and fasting had in vain kept closed. Of no use are all the other fortifications, as long as there is one place which the enemy has left defenceless.
