total humility and absolute arrogance


This is a quote that I've been thinking about lately, on and off. It comes from a Slate.com article about the crazy Tom Cruise videos online (links here).

"The main thrill here is voyeuristic, but I'm trying to dignify the viewing experience by imagining that it offers are a few small lessons of social science, clues to the combination of total humility and absolute arrogance that can characterize all types of true believers."
